University Undergraduate Core Committee Announces New Undergraduate Fellowship Program

03/01/2021

The University Undergraduate Core Committee (UUCC) announces a new SLU undergraduate fellowship program: The Undergraduate Core Curricular Fellows program.

Starting in the Fall 2022 semester, Saint Louis University will require that all undergraduate students complete the Saint Louis University Core, an integrated intellectual experience completed by all baccalaureate students at SLU, regardless of major, program, college, school or campus. In recognition of the important contributions our undergraduate students make to shaping the SLU experience for future students, the University Undergraduate Core Committee (UUCC) invites current SLU undergraduates to apply for one of eight Undergraduate Core Curricular Fellowships.

Students identified as Core Curricular Fellows will serve one-year terms on one of the UUCC’s eight Core Curricular Subcommittees, where they will assist in the review of courses submitted to count for the Core. Working in collaboration with the faculty members populating each subcommittee, and formally mentored by the Chair of their subcommittee, Undergraduate Core Curricular Fellows will gain rich, multidimensional insight into course and curricular design in higher education.

Students are free to apply to more than one subcommittee; however, Core Curricular Fellows will serve on only one subcommittee.

For more information, see the Call for Applications.

The deadline for application is Friday, March 19; appointments will be announced in early April.

For more information, please contact Ellen Crowell, Ph.D., director of the University Core, at core@slu.edu.
