Student and Faculty Research Program

A collaboration of NYSP2I's five university partners, the Student and Faculty Research Program gives students the opportunity to conduct original academic research projects alongside university faculty. The summer-long program enables students to propose, develop, design, and research solutions to real world environmental challenges. It is meant to foster creative thinking, problem solving, teamwork and collaboration across disciplines.

Student teams from NYSP2I partner universities, Binghamton University, Clarkson University, Cornell University, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, and Rochester Institute of Technology are eligible to apply. The program culminates with a symposium in September, during which the student teams give a formal academic presentation of the results of their work, field questions from a live audience, and participate in a poster session.
