The MCURC’s Student Fellows Program

The MCURC Students Fellows program provides undergraduate and graduate students from MCURC member institutions an opportunity to gain experience conducting research that advances healthy, sustainable, delicious food choices in college and university settings. The program offers students a chance to contribute to cutting-edge academic and operational research initiatives at and across MCURC member institutions and to network with peers and professionals from colleges and universities across the country and around the world. Under the mentorship of an advisor from each student’s academic and/or dining service side, MCURC Student Fellows gain valuable experience and act as an important bridge between their own campus–its dining program, student community, faculty researchers, and other stakeholders–and the MCURC.
