Woodrow Wilson Undergraduate Research Fellowships This program is designed for undergraduates who are excited by the opportunity to engage in hands-on learning with a faculty mentor in the humanities, social sciences, or natural sciences. The fellowship provides up to $10,000 to 15 freshmen (up to $7,500 to five sophomores) in the support of project expenses—including travel, equipment, and the use of archives or laboratories. (The fellowship does not count as financial aid.) Each Wilson Research Fellow benefits from the mentorship of a leading professor and may choose to focus on a single long-term project in one field, or complete projects in related or even disparate fields. The program is designed for maximum flexibility; with the help of their mentors, Wilson Research Fellows may choose to begin immediately or to wait until after they have progressed in their course work. Fellows meet regularly as a group and are invited to present their results to the Johns Hopkins community in the spring of their senior year. Freshman applicants interested in the Wilson Research Fellowship will find a program application included in the Hopkins freshman application booklet; they can also submit their Wilson application online or download a PDF to send via mail. Rising sophomores should apply directly through the program coordinator. To learn more about the Wilson Research Fellowship, click on www.jhu.edu/woodrowwilson. |
