Overview

The Dean's Undergraduate Research Awards (DURA) are designed to promote independent research projects among our exceptional undergraduate students in the Krieger School of Arts and Sciences.  These awards, which range from $500 to $3000, will enable undergraduates in KSAS to pursue original research, work closely with a Hopkins faculty mentor, and advance knowledge for the world.

While these awards fall under the auspices of the Dean’s Office, each department will be asked to name individual awards in honor of an esteemed deceased faculty member from its department.

KSAS undergraduates in the Humanities, Natural Sciences and Social Sciences are all eligible for these awards.

Two types of awards are available:

• Faculty Research Assistantships
• Senior Capstone Project Awards

APPLICATION DEADLINE:  Friday, April 6th (4:00 p.m.)
Late applications will NOT be accepted.
