Five undergraduates in the Â鶹´«Ã½ David C. Frederick Honors College earned Community Research Fellowships, which will enable their work with a scholar community or nonprofit partner or allow them focus on an issue throughout the summer as part of a long-term sustainable project.
This summer, the Frederick Honors College awarded 90 fellowship and internship awards — including the prestigious Brackenridge Fellowship as well as opportunities in creative arts, health sciences research, engineering and public service. Students from across all disciplines can apply by proposing a research topic, finding a faculty sponsor and committing to completing and presenting their research by the end of summer.
The five Community Research Fellowship recipients are:
- Oyinloluwa Ganiyu, a studio arts and biology major in the Kenneth P. Dietrich Â鶹´«Ã½ of Arts and Sciences and the Frederick Honors College
