约翰年代. 人数 Research Program

The JSTF Program funds collaborative research opportunities between Washington College students and faculty.

These fellowships provide funding to undergraduate majors in the sciences and mathematics who are engaged in campus-based research projects under the direct supervision of a faculty mentor. Such projects may occur during the academic year or in conjunction with the College’s ten-week summer research program. The Fellows, in collaboration with their faculty mentors, determine the nature of the research and receive funding to help support acquisition of equipment and supplies needed for the project. Fellows who are selected to participate in the summer program also receive a stipend of $4,000.

Recent John. S. 人数 Research Projects

  • 2020 - 2021 was a challenging year, but students still took advantage of opportunities at the College for independent research in collaboration with our faculty. The following video includes presentations from four of these students describing the work they accomplished.
  • Student presenters included Evan McCarthy, Peyton Stewart, Shannon Thomas, and Martina 塔.

  • Several students in the Natural Sciences and Mathematics division collaborated with faculty to perform independent research during the 2021 - 2022 academic year.
  • Each student created a video summary of their project that can be viewed via a link 下面.
