Shelly Rodgers, professor and Maxine Wilson Gregory Chair in Journalism Research at the Missouri School of Journalism, is spearheading a new effort to get undergraduate and graduate students involved in research. The Gregory Scholars program is a paid research position with no prior experience necessary; the inaugural cohort of three students will be chosen later this summer, and applications are open now until Sept. 10.
Open to undergraduates and master’s students from any school or college at Mizzou, the program will pair students with one of three doctoral student researchers working with Rodgers, providing valuable research experience within a range of possible topics with a particular focus on underserved communities and driving social change.
