Summer Research Fellowships

These competitive grants support thesis-related or otherwise substantive research projects over eight to ten weeks during the summer. Students proposing a research project should work closely with a faculty member and library staff to articulate a focused question, challenge, or area of study to be explored. If proposing travel, students must verify in consultation with library staff or a faculty member that the suggested location of research is necessary to the project. Students must also demonstrate prior interest and background in the proposed area of study.
Summer Research Fellowships must be at least eight weeks in length and no longer than ten weeks.
Fellows must include a detailed research budget for any related expenses particular to the project in addition to the summer funding. Download the Budget Calculator Spreadsheet
