The University of Findlay Summer Research Scholars Program will allow selected undergraduate student to engage in summer research projects being led by top faculty at the University of Findlay.
This summer, UF undergraduate students will be selected to spend six weeks working on research and creative projects that they are passionate about. Students will get valuable faculty mentorship and a $2,000 stipend (to offset income, living and transportation expenses) to work on their research. This opportunity is open to any current rising senior who has a research idea and the drive to pursue it.
The program, Summer Research Scholars, is the focus of a UF Goal Getter Grant proposal secured by Edward Nyman, Jr., Ph.D., in June 2016. Nyman felt that UF should “catch the wave of research proliferation that is spreading among liberal arts colleges nationwide.”
Eligibility
Rising senior UF undergraduate students and/or those who will graduate from UF in the spring of 2017 and are enrolled to being a graduate program AT UF in Fall 2017. (3+2/3 program students in the summer before transitioning into graduate coursework are also eligible).

Research Mentor
University of Findlay faculty researchers. Once selected, Scholars will identify a research mentor from a list of available UF faculty mentors and work with the mentor to develop a research project.
Once the applicants are screened and selected, they will each be paired with one of six participating faculty members. Prior to the summer research period each selected student will receive a packet of preparation materials that will include a detailed project summary, research hours, project deliverables, and student goals and responsibilities.
