Every dollar given has a direct impact upon our students and faculty.
Undergraduates majoring in biology have the opportunity to enhance their learning through direct participation in research and scholarship. At UGA, these opportunities enable undergraduates to participate in ground-breaking research, often as part of a team of graduate students and faculty. In fact, many students can earn academic credit while working under an experienced faculty mentor by taking BIOL 4960R, while working directly with the Center for Undergraduate Research Opportunities (CURO), or while working on interdisciplinary research teams like Vertically Integrated Projects for Research (VIPR). The Biological Sciences SPARK Award has been established to support undergraduate research opportunities in the Division of Biological Sciences within the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences. The Fellowship provides financial assistance to students who have not had an opportunity to participate in a mentored research experience (paid, volunteer, or for credit) since matriculating to the University of Georgia.
