Description
The Class of 1957 Division I & II Summer Research Fellowships program at Williams College provides funding for faculty in Divisions I (humanities) and II (social sciences) to engage current undergraduate students as full-time, on-campus research assistants during the summer. The program is designed to foster authentic, immersive student involvement in faculty research projects, requiring significant and regularly scheduled in-person engagement. The fellowship aims to create a vibrant summer research community on campus and is primarily funded by a gift from the Class of 1957. Participating students are required to submit a one-page report at the end of the summer summarizing their research experience.
