Faculty and staff can support student research and URSCA in multiple ways. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We rely on the expertise of Krieger faculty to assess applications to our undergraduate research grants. Faculty reviewers will be asked to evaluate up to 10 applications in their field, broadly defined \u2013 humanities, social sciences, natural sciences, etc. URSCA will provide an evaluation rubric and thorough instructions for reviewing the applications, which comprise a personal statement, an abstract, a full project proposal and budget, a CV, and a letter of recommendation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you would like to serve as a reviewer, please complete the faculty review panel interest form<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our undergraduate research award grantees are provided the unique opportunity to work one-on-one with Hopkins\u2019s greatest asset \u2013 its faculty. Faculty mentors work directly with grantees to ensure that they are aware of the current scholarship on their topic and that their work is making a unique contribution to the field. For most awards, faculty mentorship is a one-year commitment; for the Woodrow Wilson Fellowship<\/a>, faculty mentors supervise the undergraduate researcher for three years. Read the faculty mentor agreement for Wilson Fellows<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If a student is conducting research with human subjects, IRB approval may be required. A mentor must serve as the principal investigator on the IRB application. Visit the Homewood IRB website for more information.<\/a> <\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
We welcome Hopkins faculty, staff, and students to serve as moderators at our annual Richard Macksey National Undergraduate Humanities Research Symposium<\/a>. Moderators introduce the speakers (typically four per session), keep track of time during presentations and Q&A, ensure the smooth transition of slide presentations between speakers, and lead the panel-style Q&A session after all speakers have presented. Sessions are typically 75 minutes long. Detailed instructions and tips for successful moderation, including sample questions, will be provided to all moderators. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new Ph.D. Pathway for Advancement in the Humanities and Social Sciences<\/a> (PATHS) program aims to recruit and prepare students from backgrounds underrepresented in academia to pursue PhDs in the humanities and social sciences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
