Research matters!

Support innovative undergraduate research focused on gender across the disciplines of Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics, and the Arts (STEAM) and help Ducks solve the most pressing problems we face.

Your contribution to the CSWS Undergraduate STEAM Summer Fellowship will fund the next generation of cutting-edge research by students and faculty mentors and allow Ducks to share research findings in conferences and publications and make an impact in the real world. Our goal this year is $5,000 - can you help us reach it?

CSWS launched a pilot of the fellowship with funding raised during our 50th anniversary year. The response was robust, but we need your help to continue this innovative new program.

Thfellowship creates opportunities for STEAM-field undergraduates and faculty mentors to partner on cross-disciplinary summer research and creative projects with a focus on women and intersectional gender issues. These team-based fellowships are designed to fill a need for undergraduate arts and humanities research opportunities by linking creative work and scholarship to research in the sciences.   

CSWS Undergraduate STEAM Summer Fellowships will help to: 

  • Guide undergraduate exploration of research and experiential learning opportunities in science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics fields. 
  • Provide financial awards for undergraduate research and conference presentation on pressing social issues.  
  • Offer faculty mentorship, advising, resources, and guidance on research skill-building. 
  • Provide opportunities for students to showcase research, scholarship, and creative work on campus and beyond.  
  • Support students whose ethnicity and socioeconomic backgrounds remain underrepresented in higher education.  
  • Strengthen the academic pipeline for women and minority students entering STEAM fields.
