Description and Application
The MMUF program emphasizes mentoring, research support, and student cohort building to prepare students for entry into PhD programs and eventual careers as scholars and faculty members. Applicants will be evaluated on the basis of their prior coursework, their plans for a major, and their reflection on the ways that their life experiences and academic aspirations would contribute to MMUF's goals of advancing a broad range of scholarly perspectives. The program does not accept students who intend to go on to medical school, law school, or other professional schools.
