[Entm-beu] Inclusivity Scholarship Application Open

[Gian Carlo Ledesma]

Sent on behalf of the Inclusivity committee


Attention undergraduates! Are you interested in doing research in Entomology but not sure how to get started?
The Department of Entomology invites applications from undergraduate students for our Inclusivity Fellowship Program to conduct research in entomology at UCR. We recognize that there are marginalized groups that face systemic barriers throughout their academic journeys. An award of $1000 will be provided to an undergraduate student that has faced or addressed social, cultural, and financial barriers to participation in research. The funds are meant to support their ability to participate in research under the guidance of a Department of Entomology principal investigator. Faculty members at UCR may provide additional research support and will provide mentorship. At this time, this scholarship is limited to students enrolled at colleges and universities in Southern California.

Apply here: https://forms.gle/tXEARiDHxrhKa1au9. Deadline April 1, 2023.

Application Materials: (a) unofficial undergraduate transcript; (b) resume/curriculum vitae; (c) outside reference letter; (d) faculty contact email (not required). We encourage you to visit the list of Entomology faculty (https://entomology.ucr.edu/directory/current-faculty) and visit their websites. You can get some suggestions for contacting prospective faculty here: https://ugr.ue.ucsc.edu/email.

For any questions on the application process, please contact Hollis Woodard (hollis.woodard at ucr.edu<mailto:hollis.woodard at ucr.edu>).
