The CUNY Research Scholars Program (CRSP) aims to increase the participation of CUNY community college students in faculty-mentored research in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Math. CRSP participants must be full-time Kingsborough students. CRSP is a rigorous program where students will receive stipends totaling up to $4,000, contingent on funding, and course credits on their transcripts through enrollment in research courses CRSP over the course of one academic year, including summer. Students are required to give oral presentations, poster presentations, attend career development seminars and produce a publication-quality research poster or PowerPoint presentation. The program culminates in a CUNY wide presentation at the CRSP Symposium in August. Read more here (including info about the eligibility requirements).
