Student Research Partners Program

Geared toward incoming first-year students, this program pairs a student with a faculty mentor to work on a project related to the faculty member's research or creative area. Students gain hands-on experience with scholarship in a specific field, and may elect to continue during their sophomore year. Participation is selective, based on high academic achievement.

Students are expected to work a maximum of 7 hours per week; a stipend of $800 is provided as compensation for this work.

If you are interested in this program, view the description of the available projects. You can fill out the application form.

On Wednesday, September 19 at 4:15 p.m., we will be hosting a reception in the KC living room for interested students to meet and talk further with the faculty members. Completed applications are due on September 21 by 4 p.m. online. Faculty sponsors will choose their SRP students by September 27.
