Spelman College, and the State University of New York. Program Expectations Research projects are under individual faculty sponsorships. Students are encouraged to express a specific or general area of research. However, the program cannot guarantee that the student will work in a preferred area of research. Faculty mentors and the program director reserve the right to make the final research placements.
All research is substantive, requiring full-time commitment of the student.
Mandatory weekly meetings and seminars are also scheduled. A final abstract, paper, and formal presentation are required in addition to participation at an oral poster session near the end of the program. Program participants will be required to live in assigned, on-campus residence halls with the exception of local students. Housing expenses are covered by the program. Travel costs associated with the program will be covered within certain limitations.
