Eight University of Dubuque students will conduct research with faculty on topics such as the impact of technological addiction on college student motivation or partake in internships in their intended profession in areas such as land management this summer through the John and Alice Butler Summer Research Fellowship.
Fellows will also build professional relationships through activities such as mock interviews, resume, and cover letter design, and networking opportunities to enhance their post-graduate employment. They will commit to 400 hours of work over a 10-week period this summer. Fellows will each receive a stipend of $5,500 with an additional $600 for research or internship associated supplies and/or travel costs.
