Powerful Experiences
Every continuing, full-time, degree-seeking University of Richmond undergraduate student in good standing in the School of Arts & Sciences, Robins School of Business, or Jepson School of Leadership is eligible for funding of up to $5,000 for one approved summer research or internship experience before they graduate. Through eight different programs, UR Summer Fellowships offer students the opportunity to pursue the research or internship experience that best complements their academic pursuits — in any field of endeavor, and in any part of the world.
UR Summer Fellowships offer students powerful experiences that complement Richmond’s rigorous academics. Through faculty-mentored research experiences, students pursue original intellectual discovery while also gaining the laboratory, field, or archival experience needed to secure admission and fellowships to top graduate programs. Summer internships challenge students to apply what they’ve learned in new settings while obtaining the experience necessary to pursue their professional goals.
