Explorations in STEM - PSEG Scholars
Application Deadline:
March 10, 2017
Dates:
The 2017 Explorations in STEM program will run from May 30 through August 4, 2017
(pending funding), concurrently with the URECA summer program.
Description:
The Explorations in STEM program -- administered by the Dept. of Technology & Society,
URECA and the Career Center -- seeks to provide research/professional development
in STEM areas to undergraduate students. Students with demonstrated need (e.g. Pell-eligible
students) and/or underrepresented students, particularly freshman/sophomores considering
STEM careers, are encouraged to apply. This program particularly encourages the application of students majoring in electrical,
mechanical, civil engineering and chemical engineering.
The Explorations in STEM supports SB students doing full-time faculty-mentored research
in a STEM field for ten weeks. A major component of the program is the opportunity
for students to participate in the weekly professional development workshops/events,
which include workshops on communicating science, poster design, applying to graduate
school, etc. At the end of the ten-week period, the participants will prepare abstracts
of their work and will be required to present at the closing poster symposium at the
end of the summer. Exploration in STEM participants are also required to present their
work at the University's Celebration of Undergraduate Research & Creativity in the
following spring.
Award:
Exploration in STEM participants receive a $4,000 stipend. Participants may opt to live on-campus during the URECA fellowship period.
Eligibility:
This program is open to all current Stony Brook undergraduates who are US citizens
and/or permanent residents. Applications should be submitted with an intended sponsor/mentor
and project although students who are just starting research in a STEM area are encouraged
to apply.
History:
This program was established at SB in Summer 2013 as part of a SUNY-wide initiative
to increase student retention in STEM fields, and was sponsored by the SUNY Research
Foundation, and the Office of the President. In Summer 2014, the program was renewed,
and expanded, with increased support from the Office of the President and the Office
of the Provost. The program is administered by Technology and Society; the Career
Center; URECA and is a collaborative effort with Undergraduate Biology; and Teaching,
Learning, Technology. We are delighted to announce that PSEG is sponsoring EXPLORATIONS IN STEM for Summers
2015 and 2016.
