The Lisa J. Raines Fellowship
The Lisa J. Raines and AAP Summer Research Fellowship is an extraordinary opportunity for Georgetown sophomores and juniors wishing to conduct independent summer research. Each recipient of a Raines or AAP will receive a total of $5000 for the summer—$2500 at the beginning of the summer and the other $2500 once the project is completed. The experience is invaluable—from creating the project, drafting the timeline, sustaining independent work, writing up the research and eventually presenting the findings. The skills gained through securing and completing a summer research grant are immeasurably helpful for a strong undergraduate record, future graduate school admissions and study, and post-graduate fellowships.
History
