Description
The Fori and Robert Kay Undergraduate Research and Creative Collaboration Fund at Brandeis University aims to broaden participation in undergraduate research by helping students afford research and creative collaboration opportunities. Funding is awarded through the Undergraduate Research and Creative Collaborations (URCC) Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships, which support research and creative projects across all disciplines under the mentorship of Brandeis faculty.
Fellows dedicate seven to ten weeks of intensive summer effort to their projects and participate in Brandeis’s summer community of undergraduate researchers. Supported work includes a longitudinal dataset examining state-level racism exposure and policy gaps, and historical research on barriers facing Black women in American medical education.
