Buffalo State’s Undergraduate Summer Research Fellowship (USRF) program will continue in 2020 as scheduled, with modifications as necessary in response to COVID-19 concerns. USRF supports eight weeks of full-time research, scholarly, and creative activities. USRF applications are welcome from Buffalo State undergraduates in all disciplines with a graduation date of December 2020 or later. Each fellowship provides a student stipend of $3,000, a faculty mentor stipend of $1,000, and $500 for supplies or equipment to support the project.

Student project proposals for USRF 2020 must reflect the president’s announcements on college-funded travel restrictions and density limitations for all activities described in the application, and should include specific plans for achieving project objectives remotely during the funding period. To learn more about the program and access the online application portal, please visit the USRF program page at the Undergraduate Research Office website. The deadline for student applications has been extended to 10:00 p.m. Wednesday, April 15; mandatory faculty mentor approval will be due by 10:00 p.m. Friday, April 17.
