Research, Scholarships, Fellowships

Listed below are some opportunities for research, scholarships, and fellowships. 

The Maryland Summer Scholars Program (MSS) provides opportunities for University of Maryland, College Park (UMD) undergraduates to spend much of the summer working closely with faculty mentors on ambitious research, scholarly, or artistic projects. Many Summer Scholars expand their summer research into an independent study or honors thesis project the following autumn semester, and find that their research experience helps distinguish their applications for graduate study, fellowships, internships, employment and other competitive opportunities.




Attention SOPHOMORES studying ANY major with a strong environmental focus or interest!
The Hollings Scholarship provides two-year academic scholarships (up to a maximum of $9,500 per year) for full-time study, and a 10-week, full-time, paid internship position ($650/week) the summer after junior year at a NOAA facility. In the last five years, 26 Maryland students have won Hollings Scholarships.
