Opportunities

Don't wait until your senior year to begin doing important research on ethics at Stanford. There is a wide range of opportunities at Stanford to engage in research that has ethical relevance. One does not neccesarily have to conduct such research on campus. In the past and at present, Ethics in Society students have secured grants to work on research in Africa, India, and other parts of the United States. Stanford has numerous programs to help students fund such endeavors.

To begin looking into this process, talk with affiliated professors and staff within Ethics in Society. Seek out professors you are comfortable working with and see if you can help assist them in their research.

A wonderful resource on campus is the VPUE (Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education) office in located on the fourth floor of Sweet Hall. There you will find many programs on campus aimed at helping undergraduates begin and fund their own research endeavors. Stop by the office or checkout http://urp.stanford.edu on line. Make sure to inquire about URP (Undergraduate Research Programs) grants.

Aside from research, make sure to check out the Links section of this website for important information about internships and careers. Ethics in Society strives to encourage students to take the step from moral analysis to moral commitment, by pursuing internships and careers in public service.
