Student Research

Summer Scholar Program

The Summer Scholar Program permits students to pursue full-time collaborative work with faculty members, or independent research under the close supervision of faculty members, for a minimum of ten weeks during the summer. This program provides students a unique undergraduate venue in which to experiment with ideas and artistic expression, pursue an intellectual passion, and focus intently on the resolution of a question over a sustained period of time.

In short, students have the real experience of a scholar that is immensely valuable in its own right, but that can also serve as a testing ground for possible graduate or professional studies.
