This program will end after the 2012/13 academic year. No applications are being accepted for the following year.
Undergraduate Research Fellows Program
Twenty high-achieving students will be selected to perform research with a
Furman faculty mentor in the summer of 2012, continuing into the following school year, and ideally beyond.
Specifically, this program includes:
- An introduction to data handling and scientific ethics during a 2-credit May Experience course in 2012.
- A stipend of $3,500 for 10 weeks of summer research. The university will also provide housing at no charge.
- An academic year stipend of $1,500 to continue research for 10 hours/week throughout the academic year as a sophomore.
- A seminar in scientific research beginning in the summer and continuing throughout the academic year. The HHMI seminar is awarded two academic credits per year, one per semester.
- Fellows will be encouraged to continue research beyond their sophomore year. Additional funding is available to support these activities.
CONGRATULATIONS to all our
2012-13 HHMI Undergraduate Research Fellows!
