Brookfield Scholars Making Remarkable Research

Brookfield Scholars Making Remarkable Research

In a quiet corner of the science wing, two second-year students are tracking water quality across three counties — one of forty undergraduate projects funded by this year’s summer research bursaries.

Their findings will join the annual student symposium, where faculty panels select the strongest work for publication. Last year, eleven undergraduate papers made it into peer-reviewed journals.

“We arrived with curiosity and left with a dataset, a poster and a plan for next summer.”

The programme’s secret is simple: real questions, real equipment and supervisors who treat student researchers as colleagues from the first meeting.
