what are the type of benefits for humanity majors to be conducting research on campus?

I Have a question. It would be easier though if I unmute.

Does your advisor/mentor have to be a full-time Tufts faculty member, or can they be part-time?

hahaha

Access to Tisch resources?

Are there any commitments to the program after the 10 weeks over the summer?

Would it be okay if our research during the summer changed a bit from the original research proposal? Like, if our PI wants to change the project

If we’re also planning on doing a senior thesis, what scope of project should we propose? Would it be one part of the thesis, like collecting data or lit review, or something broader?

can the faculty mentor be a full-time faculty member in a Tufts school different from the one the student is enrolled in? e.g. an undergraduate arts & sciences student conducting research alongside a Fletcher professor

Going off of Kamar’s question, is it ok to TA a class at Tufts as a side job while doing the program ?

Can you take a class alongside summer scholars if the class would benefit your research? Like a research methods course

what counts as an underrepresented discipline? Would that be based on the size of the department?

Is previous research experience a prerequisite? Or just recommended?

does “tufts faculty member” include any professor you’ve had at tufts, or is the full-time/part-time distinction still at play?

Is someone from the same department as your research mentor a problem?

Who typically decides the research project topic for Summer Scholars? Does the student suggest an idea to the faculty mentor, or can the student apply to collaborate with a faculty member on a project that the professor has already begun working on?

Can you present virtually in the fall poster session or the undergraduate research symposium if you are studying abroad in following semesters?

Can you receive credit for you research?

Can you share the links of these articles?

Could you please send the short answer questions here? I’m not sure if this was just me but I wasn’t able to find them on the website
