New York, ,
United States
Term: Summer

Funds Columbia College students participating in summer research projects related to climate, sustainability, and environmental justice.

The Comer Climate Undergraduate Summer Research Fellowship supports Columbia College students participating in summer research projects related to climate, sustainability and environmental justice. First-generation, low-income and/or underrepresented students are particularly encouraged to apply. The fellowship seeks to create meaningful new research opportunities, with the ultimate goal of encouraging a more diverse community of students who seek to pursue graduate study or professional engagement in climate related fields.

On-campus housing will be provided, along with a living stipend. For qualified students the fellowship will also provide a grant that will replace a student's summer work expectation (student contribution).

ELIGIBILITY

  • First, second or third year students in Columbia College;
  • Major or intended major in a field related to sustainability or climate;
  • Willingness to devote 10 weeks to a full-time, in-person, on campus research opportunity, starting at the start of Summer Session A. (This opportunity is not compatible with other commitments such as coursework or a job.)
  • Selected fellows are required to participate in the Undergraduate Research Symposium. Learn more about the Symposium here.
