Shari Horowitz of West Windsor is a member of a select group of students chosen to participate in Project Super, also known as Science for Undergraduates: A Program for Excellence in Research. The program at Douglass College encourages women to explore fields of study in which they have been traditionally underrepresented including math, science, technology, and engineering.##M:[more]##
“Project Super has been highly beneficial to me because it provided me with an internship during my first year that I was able to present at Aresty Undergraduate Research Symposium and at the state legislature,” says Horowitz.
A marine sciences major, Horowitz is minoring in marine biology. A graduate of High School South, Class of 2004, she is a junior at Douglass. In her high school yearbook she quotes Rachel Carson. “Those who dwell among the beauties and mysteries of the earth are never alone or weary of life.”
Participants in the program receive paid research internships during the summers of their first year and junior year. Their research is shared during undergraduate research poster sessions. Career and professional development retreats, advanced research opportunities, job shadowing, and travel grants are also elements of the program.
Johns Hopkins University: Daniel Zeilberger is on the spring dean’s list. He is majoring in electrical engineering and is expected to graduate next May. Zeilberger is a graduate of High School South, Class of 2003.
