Jefferson Trust Awards RRD Lab $100,000 to Support Undergraduate Research

The Religion, Race & Democracy Lab was named 1 of 13 grantees to receive funding from the Jefferson Trust. The $100,000 award will fully support 20 individual undergraduate multimedia research projects on the topics of religion, race, and democracy over the course of two years. The Lab will offer undergraduate research collaborators regular training and mentorship, funding and access to technology, and an online publishing platform. Select undergraduates will be part of an established student research cohort, which until now was exclusively graduate students. The first CFP will be announced on March 1.
