Summer Research Community

Each summer, CSB and SJU welcomes over 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.

• Departmental Research
• OURS Collaborative Research Grant
• Student-Driven Research Grant

OURS has committed to funding up to 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.

Collaborative grants provide $6000+ for a full-time student collaborator (40 hours per week for 10 weeks), plus a living allowance to offset housing and food costs!

Students interested in departmental sponsored research can visit the following department webpages for more information:

• Biology
• Chemistry
• Computer Science
• Environmental Studies
• Math
• Psychology

All summer researchers are encouraged to share their projects at the End-of-Summer Research Showcase! This poster session, held during the first week of fall classes, is a great opportunity to present your research or creative work to the campus community.
