Research Opportunities with Study Abroad
LENDER GLOBAL IN SANTIAGO, CHILE
Syracuse University’s Lender Center for Social Justice and Syracuse Abroad have chosen the Santiago, Chile, program as the next location to host a new globally focused student research initiative.
The Lender Global program was launched last year to offer students innovative research opportunities to examine social justice issues from a global perspective. In Santiago, student fellows will study the impact and consequences of the Augusto Pinochet dictatorship in Chile. This is an opportunity for students to understand the impact of authoritarian regimes on the lives of citizens through the lens of Chile’s history.
Three student fellowships will be awarded to students who plan to study abroad in Santiago during the 2025-26 academic year. Learn more details about the fellowship in SU News or the information session recording.
TYLER CENTER GRANTS WITH SOURCE
The Tyler Center for Global Studies has awarded a $20,000 grant to Syracuse Abroad and the Syracuse Office for Undergraduate Research and Creative Engagement (SOURCE). Tyler Center Fellowships will fund international travel (up to $5,000) for undergraduate research and creative projects. Students may become Tyler Fellows through one of two pathways:
- Summer Tyler Fellows will craft a faculty-guided, independent project and may pursue research travel in any location outside of the United States.
- Fall Tyler Fellows will participate in the Syracuse Abroad Santiago, Strasbourg or Central Europe programs and will design research projects related to those locations, with guidance from Syracuse Abroad and SOURCE staff. The application deadline for these Syracuse Abroad programs for the Fall 2025 semester is March 15.
SOURCE is available to assist students with developing research ideas, finding faculty mentors or preparing application materials. Contact the SOURCE team at ugresearch@syr.edu or 315.443.2091. Students can learn more about the fellowship in SU News.
