Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship

The DEFY Undergraduate Research Fellowships provide support for USC undergraduate students doing research focused on the USC Shoah Foundation Visual History Archive and/or other unique USC resources and collections during the summer. The fellowship is open to USC undergraduate students of all disciplines. Award decisions for the DEFY fellowships will be based on the originality of the research proposal and the centrality of USC resources to the research project.
