Inquiry-based learning reaches its pinnacle in scientific research. For this reason, Calvin College encourages and arranges research opportunities for its students. During the summer students work with faculty and receive salary support in the form of summer research fellowships.
Fellowship funds come from a variety of sources. Some come from generous private donors who know or have experienced the importance of undergraduate research. Other opportunities are supported by various grants that faculty have obtained. These include grants from National Institutes of Health and the National Science Foundation. Still more funds are provided by Calvin College and by the Alumni Fund. All of these funding sources have the same goal: to enhance and expand inquiry-based learning opportunities for undergraduate students in the sciences.
