The University of Nebraska–Lincoln has awarded stipends to 200 Husker undergraduates to participate in research with a faculty mentor this fall.

Nebraska’s Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experiences Program supports undergraduates to work with faculty mentors in research or creative activities. Students receive stipends of $3,600 to engage in intensive research or creative activity for 10 hours per week. The students’ projects span academic disciplines including engineering, chemistry, modern languages and literatures, psychology, art and art history, architecture, special education, and fisheries and wildlife.

UCARE participants will present posters on their research and creative activities during Student Research Days, April 15-16, at the Nebraska Union. For more information on undergraduate research at Nebraska, click here.

Charlotte Brockman, an agronomy major, and Ryleigh Grove, a plant biology major, will participate. Brockman’s research title is “Exploring the Role of Women in Sustainable Agriculture Adoption in the United States and Abroad,” and Grove’s is “Deciphering Dynamics and Adaptations in PACMAD Gene Family Evolutionary Patterns.”
