About the Morris Undergraduate Research Fellowship
Established in 2017 thanks to a generous donation from Scott ('80, '89) and Liz (Tomich, '80) Morris, the Morris Undergraduate Research Fellowships are awarded to student-faculty research teams within the College of Arts & Sciences.
Fellowship Details
- Awarded to original, student driven research projects carried out during the summer months.
- Both the student and the faculty mentor receive a stipend for this work, considered part-time.
- The fellows are required to meet in-person 6 times over a summer (during Summer Sessions 1 and 2).
- Final reports are due the first day of fall semester classes.
- Project presentations be given during Fall Family Weekend's Undergraduate Research Showcase.
Eligibility
- Students with a major in the College of Arts & Sciences (CAS) at Gonzaga University (GU).
- Students must be returning in the fall after their summer research fellowship for continued full-time study. Students studying abroad in the fall are not eligible.
- Students must find a full-time faculty member in CAS to sponsor their research project; this would typically be a faculty member in CAS, but we will consider faculty in other schools on a case-by case basis as long as the research topic is in a CAS discipline.
- Sponsored projects must be in presentable condition by the end of the second summer term, when funding concludes.
