The University of
Lynchburg’s Westover Honors College is excited to announce the 2022 Virginias
Collegiate Honors Council Meeting, themed “Reconnecting”. The
conference dates are Friday, April 8 and Saturday, April 9, 2022. The
meeting aims to unite Honors students from Virginia and West Virginia for
interdisciplinary collaboration and community building.
VCHC
seeks proposals from students of two- and four-year college and university
Honors Programs across Virginia and West Virginia to showcase students’
innovative ideas and learning experiences, and also highlight the diverse
opportunities in Honors education and activities around both states. Deans and
Directors are also encouraged to register students who may benefit from
attending and developing professional skills through peer interactions.
The Computer Science
Department at the University of Texas at Dallas will conduct a ten-week summer
research program funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) for ten
undergraduates from May 20 to July 28, 2022. The focus is on "software safety and reliability," however the technology skills learned by the students have general applicability to research and practice in their future studies.
In addition to work on
assigned research projects at UTD, special seminars by industry advisors will be arranged
to help the students better
understand how software safety and reliability
is adopted in practice for real-life applications. This also gives students a chance to directly communicate with practitioners to receive a first-hand account of the work environments and lifestyles in the industry.
The Research Apprenticeship Program
(RAP) in the Office of Undergraduate Research is seeking 2 (two) full-time (20
hours/week) Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) for the 2022-2023 academic year. We are looking for candidates
with some sort of teaching/mentoring/tutoring experience, as well as research
experience. We are open to candidates from all disciplines, but candidates must
be able to work effectively and compassionately with students from all
backgrounds and disciplines since RAP is a multidisciplinary research program.

Applications are open for the 2022 summer Psychology Research Experience Program (PREP) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Please feel free to share with students and faculty across your departments.
The Psychology Research Experience Program (PREP: https://psych.wisc.edu/nsf-reu-site-psychology-research-experience-program/) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison provides intensive mentoring and experience in scientific research and professional development to undergraduates from historically underrepresented populations — those from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups, those from low-income backgrounds, those with disabilities, and first-generation college students — who have expressed and demonstrated an interest in a career in scientific psychology. Accepted students will be paired with either graduate or post-doctoral research mentors under the supervision of departmental faculty allowing the student to become integrated within their respective host labs. We also connect our incoming cohort with distanced mentorship by former PREP students through our growing network of scholars.
The Bioproducts Research Scholars program offers paid summer research opportunities to undergraduate students. Students need to be enrolled full time in an undergraduate program at university in the U.S. and plan continuing their education in the fall of 2022As a cohort of five students you will engage in research related to biomass and bioproducts development and get the chance to learn about the state and future of this industry. Students will also have opportunities to visit other research sites and biomass facilities in the area.
NOAA GSL and University of Colorado, Boulder Cooperative Institute for Research in Earth Sciences (CIRES) have announced a joint internship, open to undergraduate and graduate students, starting in Summer 2022. Of note,
