Princeton Summer Research Experience

Nineteen undergraduate students and recent graduates from universities around the country participated in the Princeton Summer Research Experience between June 12 through Aug. 11. The goal of the program is to encourage minority students to pursue graduate study. The students lived on campus and worked one-on-one with Princeton faculty members on research projects. They also attended sessions on such topics as "Paths to Graduate School" and "Graduate Admissions and Financial Information." The students are pictured here with David Redman (back row, far right), associate dean of the Graduate School, following the final presentations of their research. "This program has further bridged the gap for me between undergraduate and doctoral study in sociology," said participant Juan Carrillo, a 2000 graduate of Arizona State University. "The likelihood of my attending graduate school is much higher now."
