CLAS Announces 2008 University Scholars
For ten years the University Scholars Program has introduced undergraduate students at the University of Florida to the exciting world of academic research. In the program, students work one-on-one with UF faculty on selected research projects and, through this initiative, take away an understanding and appreciation of the scholarly method.
This year, 53 students from the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences have been selected as University Scholars. Each will receive $2,500.
