The Hilldale Undergraduate/Faculty Research Fellowships support undergraduate research done in collaboration with UW–Madison faculty or research/instructional academic staff. Approximately 105 Hilldale awards are available each year. The student researcher receives $3,000, and faculty/staff research advisor receives $500 to help offset research costs, e.g., supplies, faculty or student travel related to the project.
