The Community Research Fellowships support undergraduate Pitt students in collaborating with local community partners in exploring relevant social issues through community-based research. The research may take place part-time during an entire academic year (a cohort continues through both fall and spring semesters), or full-time during the summer.
Any interested Pitt student may submit an application, which should include a research proposal, statement of interest, and support letters from a faculty mentor and community partner. The research could include survey design, focus groups, interviews, data analysis, or any other relevant research methods. The student stipend for the Fall-Spring Community Research Fellowship is $1,000 per semester and the student stipend for the Summer Community Research Fellowship is $4000, provided by the University's David C. Frederick Honors College.
