MUSE

Mentored Undergraduate Summer Experience

TCNJ undergraduate students spend eight weeks in residence at The College of New Jersemsp-webpagey during the summer, conducting research or engaging in creative activity in mentored collaboration with TCNJ faculty. The program funds research stipends and on-campus housing for the students, and consists of a vibrant mix of ideas and projects in the Humanities, Arts, Social Sciences, Sciences, and in the professional disciplines of Engineering, Education, Business, and Nursing/Health/Exercise Science. MUSE includes a coordinated program of intellectual and social activities to build an exciting community of scholars that reaches across all academic disciplines.
