The Agriculture, Geosciences, and Natural Resources Fellows Research Program (AGN-FRP) provides an opportunity for outstanding agriculture, geosciences, and natural resources students to gain organized experiences in research and scholarship through a mentored relationship with an agriculture, geosciences, or natural resources (AGN) faculty member. The primary goal of the AGN-FRP is to foster and enhance undergraduate research. The AGN-FRP is an excellent preparatory program for professional schools and graduate studies.
Entrance Requirements: Students with an overall 3.00* undergraduate GPA at the completion (spring semester) of their freshman year (minimum of 28 hours earned) and AGN-FRP Nomination are eligible to enter the AGN-FRP. Sophomores and transfer students with a 3.25* GPA and AGN-FRP Nomination are eligible to enter the ANG-FRP. AGN-FRP Nomination is based on three letters of support from AGN faculty. (Transfer students may utilize two faculty letters of support from their transfer institution.)
Class Size: The AGN-FRP is a cohort-based program. Class size (cohort) of the AGN-FRP may be limited to align with staffing and physical constraints.
Continuation Requirements: AGN-FRP students must maintain a minimum GPA of 3.00* (as computed at the end of each respective school year, spring semester) and be in good standing (as determined by the AGN-FRP Committee) to remain in the program.
