4. University Apprenticeship Program

The Undergraduate Faculty-Student Apprenticeship Program is designed to
encourage Mason's high-achieving undergraduate students to become involved
in research and creative projects early in their academic careers under the
guidance of a faculty mentor.

Up to 18 scholarly projects on which faculty members and students work
closely together throughout the semester will be selected. In addition to
meeting and working closely with their faculty members, students will meet
as a group three times during the semester to discuss professional
development issues, including preparing for graduate school, graduate
funding, designing a poster or other professional presentation and writing
abstracts.

A $1,000 stipend is provided to the students selected for the program.
Students are also funded to attend several undergraduate research
conferences or disciplinary conferences. Some stipends to cover materials
purchased as part of the project are available to faculty who participate.

Applications from all disciplines and departments are encouraged. Faculty
members and students should collaborate and submit applications online. For
more information, contact Deirdre Moloney.

The deadline to apply for the summer term is April 15.
