From interviews in Ireland to low-income healthcare access in the community surrounding campus, 10 Gettysburg College students undertook summer research with support from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
This was the seventh consecutive summer during which Mellon grants supported collaboration between students and their faculty mentors. Each project is connected to the student's ongoing program of study. It can be the beginning of a senior capstone project, or it can complete a project begun as part of previous coursework.
Gettysburg College's scholar development program supports undergraduate research and creative activities throughout students' four years. The program facilitates fellowships, scholarships, and grants. It also celebrates student research at an annual colloquium.
