The Tyler Center for Global Studies has awarded a $20,000 grant to Syracuse Abroad and the Syracuse Office for Undergraduate Research and Creative Engagement (SOURCE). Tyler Center Fellowships will fund international travel (up to $5,000) for undergraduate research and creative projects. Students may become Tyler Fellows through one of two pathways:

  • Summer Tyler Fellows will craft a faculty-guided, independent project and may pursue research travel in any location outside of the United States.
  • Fall Tyler Fellows will participate in the Syracuse Abroad Santiago, Strasbourg or Central Europe programs and will design research projects related to those locations, with guidance from Syracuse Abroad and SOURCE staff. The application deadline for these Syracuse Abroad programs for the Fall 2025 semester is March 15.

Interested students should first email ugresearch@syr.edu to indicate interest in the Tyler Fellows Program, and then prepare a project proposal and apply through one of the two following SOURCE deadlines:

  • Summer 2025 Tyler Fellows should apply through the SOURCE Fellowship (applications are due by Feb. 27)
  • Fall 2025 Tyler Fellows should apply through the SOURCE Bridge (applications are due by April 3)

Tyler Center Fellows will participate in additional cohort-building activities, including a “Research in Community” seminar with other Tyler Fellows from the University, along with the national cohort of Tyler Fellows from other institutions.

The image shows a person standing on a bridge, pointing at a blue sign with yellow stars and white text that reads "Rzeczpospolita Polska." Below this sign, there is another blue sign with the same text and an emblem of a white eagle. The lower sign also includes the words "Granica Państwa" and various stickers. The background shows trees, buildings, and several other people walking.

“We are delighted to have been awarded the Tyler Center grant and the ability to elevate our support for international student-driven discovery,” says Erika Wilkens, assistant provost and executive director of Syracuse Abroad. “It is also a wonderful example of institutional collaboration to advance shared goals for student global engagement and experiential learning, and we are delighted to be working with SOURCE to make this happen.”

“The Tyler Center for Global Studies grant provides Syracuse undergraduate students with a new level of support for innovative international research,” says SOURCE Director Kate Hanson. “SOURCE is thrilled to partner with Syracuse Abroad to promote research opportunities through the Santiago, Strasbourg and Central Europe programs.”

SOURCE is available to assist students with developing research ideas, finding faculty mentors or preparing application materials. Contact the SOURCE team at ugresearch@syr.edu or 315.443.2091.

The Tyler Center for Global Studies, based out of Florida State University, works to cultivate a community of global scholars who shape the future through research, innovation and collaboration. The center makes grants to nonprofit post-secondary institutions in the United States.
