Mentorships also allow students to assist faculty in research. Mentorships, however, are awarded on a competitive basis and students who receive a Mentorship are awarded a stipend rather than academic credit. Like URP, the Mentorship Program can provide excellent assistance to a faculty member’s research project. Although students are encouraged to locate a faculty member who is interested in becoming a Mentor, we also invite faculty members to recommend students to the Mentorship Program. The contractual procedure for Mentorships is similar to that of the URP.
Summer research grants are for full-time research over the summer. The application process for summer grants takes place near the end of the spring semester.
Mentorships are awards of $600 per semester, to support and encourage student work with individual faculty members. Application materials will be available in the spring semester.
