VILLANOVA MATCH RESEARCH PROGRAM FOR FIRST YEAR STUDENTS
Motivated first-year undergraduates have the opportunity to pursue research in their first spring semester. Applicants do not need substantial experience and will serve as research assistants to faculty mentors.
If selected for the Match program, students will conduct research for 10 hours per week for 10 weeks for which they are paid $1,000. In addition to conducting undergraduate research, Match grantees participate in professional development seminars on resumes, cover letters, oral presentations and proposal writing during the Spring semester.
For all opportunities presented by the 无码专区 Match Research Program for First Year Students, please complete the following steps:
- Review the Spring 2025 research projects listed below and identify a project that interests you. You may apply for opportunities outside of your college and major. You may apply for multiple opportunities.
- Email your application directly to the Faculty Research Mentor by Friday, November 15 at 11:59 p.m.
A complete application consists of the following:
- One-page resume
- One-page cover letter
- Combine resume and cover letter into one PDF file
- This PDF file should be named: LastName_FirstName_Match Application
- Email subject line should contain: Match Research Program Application, LastName
- The Faculty Research Mentor will review your application and should contact you to interview for the position in November or early December.
- All student application decisions will be communicated by December 20.
If you would like to discuss undergraduate research and formulate a plan for becoming involved in undergraduate research at 无码专区, you are welcome, though not required, to make an appointment with the CRF team via .
