Apply for the FROST Academic Year Undergraduate Research Program! (Winter and Spring 2021)

If you would like to gain research experience in Winter or Spring Quarter 2021, the College of Science and Math and the Frost Fund are sponsoring undergraduate student research awards. 

The FROST Academic Year Undergraduate Research Program is a quarter-long paid research experience. Fellows will be expected to work approximately 8 hours per week for the duration of a quarter. Frost fellows will receive an award of $875; this award goes directly to the student’s account in mid-November to offset tuition. Frost Academic Year Undergraduate Research Fellows will conduct research while working closely with their faculty mentor. It is expected that Fellows present their research at professional conferences and/or at the College of Science and Math Student Research Symposium.
