Undergraduate students are encouraged to get involved in research within the Department of Atmospheric Sciences. There are several scholarship opportunities--including the Claire Booth Luce Scholarships, the National Science Foundation Scholarships, and the Fulbright Fellowships--on campus for students with research projects. Dr. Schrage has information about these and other programs on campus that you might apply for as an ATS major. You should talk to your advisor to see if you qualify for any of these awards.
