Summer Researcher Community:
OURS Collaborative Grant and Departmental Research
Each summer, CSB and SJU welcomes 60+ students to participate in our on-campus summer research community! The Office of Undergraduate Research & Scholars sponsors 13 faculty-student teams to complete a 10-week project through our unique Collaborative Grant. OURS also supports students doing departmental sponsored research through resources, events, and professional development opportunities.
OURS has committed to funding a total of 13 student-faculty collaborative teams to work on a wide range of research and creative work projects. These funds are available to ALL disciplines and are distinct from traditional departmental lines held by each department.
All grants provide $6000+ for a full-time student collaborator (40 hours per week for 10 weeks).
Students interested in departmental sponsored research can visit the following department webpages for more information:
OURS Summer Researcher Community provides programming and support for our students who are spending their summers completing research or creative work. Programming includes:
- Research Roundtables, bringing students from various disciplines together to talk about research in digestible ways.
- Research on Resumes, where we partner with XPD: Career Services to offer a workshop on how to market your research experience on your resume and in interviews.
- Summer Researcher Celebration, our summer symposia that includes a poster session, oral sessions, and opportunities for feedback and discussion for researchers across campus.
