Faculty-Student Research Partnership Program (FSRP)

How It Works

• Faculty Participation: Distinguished faculty members actively participate in the FSRP. They bring their expertise and passion for research to guide students through exciting projects.
• Student Involvement: Students have the opportunity to work closely with faculty mentors on mutually beneficial research endeavors. This partnership allows them to gain valuable skills and contribute to cutting-edge academic work.
• Project Commitment: Research skill development and project expectations are designed to be manageable. On average, participants dedicate up to 4 hours per week to their FSRP projects.
• Faculty Reports: At the end of each project, faculty/student members provide a brief report summarizing research goals achieved and the skills developed during the collaboration.

The Application and Selection Process
