Have you worked with a faculty-mentor on a research project while at NIU?

Please describe the project and your involvement in it

How will participation in undergraduate research help you achieve your academic and career goals at NIU?

List the topics and/or subjects you are most interested in exploring. (This might include topics that pique your curiosity, problems you are interested in solving and/or topics you want to explore deeper)

How will the skills and experiences you have be useful in participating in research? (i.e. computer competency, qualitative/quantitative research skills, knowledge about statistical programs, etc.).

I understand that the Research Rookies program is an academic year-long commitment and that I will receive a $500 scholarship upon completion of all program requirements (visit go.niu.edu/ResearchRookies to view requirements) in May if accepted into the program.
