Since 1991, DePauw has offered a Science Research Fellows Program to small cohorts of recruited students who are passionate about hands-on research in science. The program has been tremendously successful in supplementing the coursework for science majors in preparation for careers in science research and in careers adjacent to science research, such as medical professionals.
In Fall 2021, with the 30-year anniversary of the Science Research Fellows Program, we committed to expanding opportunities for all interested DePauw students. We are expanding from a small recruited cohort of students to an inclusive model. We want to ensure that all DePauw students who are already passionate about science research -- and students who become passionate about science research as they take classes at DePauw and begin having hands-on experiences -- have a clear pathway for developing skills towards a career in research and research-adjacent fields.
Our scaffolded pathway prepares you to pursue hands-on research (on and off-campus) and teaches you the skills to conduct meaningful research. You will learn how to effectively communicate your research and how to apply for and obtain relevant post-graduation opportunities.
