Do you want to broaden your perspectives and understanding of plants, agricultural systems, and ecological approaches to management? Spend a summer leading your project and explore what it means to be a researcher, see if you like it!</p><p>PEAS is hosted by the Department of Plant Sciences in partnership with the Undergraduate Research Center (URC) to provide mentorship and financial resources for undergraduate students to engage with research and professional development opportunities in the field of agroecology, sustainable agriculture and relevant plant, soil and biological sciences. The goal is to gain experience in real-world settings, prepare you for a carrier in your field and create more inclusive pathways for undergraduates from different backgrounds to meaningfully engage in research.</p><div class="align-left media media--type-sf-image-media-type media--view-mode-sf-small"> <img loading="lazy" src="/sites/g/files/dgvnsk3561/files/styles/sf_small_width/public/media/images/Photo%20from%20Caity%281%29%281%29%281%29.jpg?itok=7uCcL5ql" width="200" height="183" alt="lab picture 2" class="image-style-sf-small-width"> </div> <p>Fellows will propose a project that they will be responsible for developing and managing over the summer with mentorship from project partners and UC faculty, staff and graduate students. This may take many forms, depending on the area of study, and is intended to provide a dedicated period in the summer for research when academic activities are typically light. Research may take place at UC Davis, research stations, on-farm, in farming communities and private and non-profit organizations. Fellows will have opportunities to participate in workshops proposed by the URC and receive a stipend and funds for travel, conference attendance and/or research supplies.</p><h4><br>Program requirements</h4><p>This program will provide 3 fellowships/year to candidates who meet the following criteria:</p><ol><li><span>You must have a current research position and be involved in faculty-sponsored research. </span></li><li>Be a continuing undergraduate student, not in their final year of study and enrolled through the completion of your projects.</li><li>Be majoring in Plant Sciences and/or biophysical, socio-economic and political sciences with interests in agroecology and sustainable food systems.
