CSWS is hosting an Information Session for students an faculty mentors interested in applying for our newest research initiative—the CSWS Undergraduate STEAM Summer Fellowship.
Over summer, undergraduate fellows collaborate with University of Oregon faculty mentors to develop interdisciplinary research and creative projects that engage with STEAM fields—science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. Our STEAM fellows approach their inquiry with gender and intersectionality as an analytical framework.
“We are so excited to support undergraduate research and creative projects that align with our mission,” said CSWS Director Sangita Gopal. “These team-based fellowships are designed to fill a need for undergraduate arts and humanities research opportunities at the University of Oregon by linking creative work and scholarship to research in the sciences.”
Student fellows receive up to $3,000 to pursue their research-based summer projects, while faculty mentors receive up to $1,000. The program also enhances pathways for under-represented students in STEAM to succeed.
CSWS defines research as broadly encompassing all academic fields of study, including social sciences, humanities, arts, sciences, and disciplines in the professional schools. Final products must support the mission of CSWS and may be in any genre (e.g., an article, website, comic, podcast, short film, etc.).
The information session will be held from 3-4 p.m. Friday, Jan 23, in Hendricks 330 (CSWS Jane Grant Room).
Application deadline for the fellowship is 5 p.m. Monday, March 30, 2026. Information: https://csws.uoregon.edu/steam-fellowship
