SCOPE
Through SU’s Summer Collaborative Opportunities and Experiences, or SCOPE, students partner with faculty and fellow undergraduates from across the disciplines—including the natural and social sciences, the humanities, and the arts—to engage in scholarly and creative inquiry. While living on campus for eight weeks, students receive a stipend to collaborate full-time on SU faculty research projects and artistic works, from developing artificial intelligence for video games and identifying mollusks using environmental DNA to examining the leadership styles of CEOs and investigating the racial history of the University. They also engage in weekly social and academic events, fostering a tight-knit learning community as well as individual professional development.
