Each academic year, DCII sponsors up to six Robert Mayer Undergraduate Research Fellows.
-
These students have a double major or a major and minor(s), and at least one of these majors/minors must be in Dedman College.
-
With two faculty mentors, each Mayer Fellow conducts a substantial research project that combines and integrates the perspectives of his/her major(s)/minor(s).
-
Mayer Fellows have access to funds to use for research travel or for other expenses related to the development and completion of their research project.
-
Each Mayer Fellow is required to produce a substantial research paper and to present his/her findings in a public forum to which all fellows, faculty mentors and other members of the SMU community are invited.
