Research Funding and Fellowships

During the school year, you may engage in research via advanced courses in your department. Two of such opportunities are the Special Studies option, and Senior Honors Thesis, through which you perform in-depth research on your topic of choice under the supervision of a faculty member.  Whereas Special Studies usually consists of a semester long project, the Honors Thesis comprises a year-long endeavor. Contact your particular department for detailed information.  Either option is eligible for funding supplied via your department and/or College Hall.

The Smith College’s Fellowship Office has also succeeded in training an increasing number of applicants for prestigious national fellowships.

Conference Travel Funding

The Clark Science Center administrates two grants supporting students attending conferences. Additionally, you may inquire for available conference travel funding at your particular department. The Dean of the College, the President’s Office, as well as other offices around campus also offer funding opportunities.

 

STUDENT SUPPORT AND NETWORKING

Smith College features a range of student-run organization on-campus oriented towards your academic or social interests. Networking, leadership opportunities, access to information in the field of your choice and other events are just some of their highlights.
