The McDonough Undergraduate Research Fellowship is for rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors currently who are interested in engaging in the research process. Selected applicants have the opportunity to work with the Undergraduate Program Office to design an original research project. The Fellowship offers a 10-week program with up to a $5,000 award and a five-week program with up to a $2,500 award.
An exceptional application includes a strong research proposal with fresh and innovative ideas, and lend new knowledge to whatever business sector you are researching. Previous research experience is not required; however, it is required that you find a faculty mentor who is committed to working with you throughout the research process. A faculty mentor should advise you, critique your work, and offer constructive criticism. Applicants should present copies of their research to their faculty advisors no later than March 21, 2014.
