The Undergraduate Research Scholarship and Creative Activities committee invites faculty-student teams to submit proposals for the ESU Summer Undergraduate Research Program (ESURP). The purpose of the program is to provide opportunities for students to pursue in-depth, relevant studies in their discipline by collaborating with a faculty mentor. Funds will support faculty summer salary, student scholarship and research supplies. Competitive proposals will demonstrate scholarly activity that is authentic and conveys a strong sense of collaboration between the student and the faculty mentor.
