Thirty-five undergraduate students at the 91porn��Ƶ will receive $4,000 each and other support for their summer research as 2023 Brackenridge fellows. The fellowship, sponsored by the , supports independently led research and creative projects and includes weekly seminars to enhance learning and idea exchange.

Since the fellowship's inception 30 years ago, Brackenridge fellows have come from every school and college on the University’s Pittsburgh campus. The 2023 cohort is the first to include students from a regional campus, Kaylee Huber and Ethan Crosby, rising sophomores in Pitt-Greensburg’s honors program.

This summer, Huber of California, Pennsylvania, pictured left, is using abstract algebra to discover the algorithms behind solving Rubik’s Cubes. The potential applications for such an algorithm could range from enhancing traffic flow on roads to computer programming, said Huber, who’s majoring in applied mathematics.

Crosby of Greensburg, Pennsylvania, pictured below, is dedicating his Brackenridge Fellowship to developing Roadar, an app that synthesizes weather and map data to provide drivers with real-time inclement weather information along their travel route. Crosby, whose major is currently undeclared, is optimistic that by the end of the summer, he will be ready to release the app for purchase.

The Brackenridge Fellowship, established by founding dean of the Honors College Alec Stewart, was created as a venue for undergraduate students from across disciplines to interact with each other and learn about what research looks like in different fields, said Brett Say, director of honors research programs. All majors are welcome to apply, and project proposals can range from creative to analytical scholarship.

“Sometimes when students hear the word ‘research,’ they think of white lab coats and beakers, or they think of an elderly bearded guy going through dusty books — and sure those are types of research, but research is done in every single discipline, from studio arts to bioengineering,” he said.

Interacting with a wide breadth of researchers is appealing, said Huber. She views the fellowship as a gateway to expanding the scope of her mathematical studies.

“After my time as a Brackenridge fellow, I will be experienced in multiple research methods so that I may branch out beyond the STEM field,” she said.
