About WiSE Researchers
The goal of this program is to provide upper-level undergraduate students with first-hand experience in laboratory-based research, and to thereby encourage promising students to pursue graduate studies in the sciences and/or engineering. Upperclassmen who have an established working relationship with a faculty mentor submit a research project proposal. If awarded, they commit to participating in WiSE programming efforts throughout the academic year and receive a substantial grant to conduct research. For most students, this research will be conducted during the summer months.
Award Amount
A $3,000 grant the semester in which research is conducted, $500 during each of the Fall and Spring Semesters for participation in the WiSE Research Programming Series, and $500 in advisor support
How to Apply
Complete and submit the online application by April 1st.
