New College Undergraduate Inquiry and Research Experiences (NCUIRE)

Home / Research / NCUIRE / Research Assistant Application

Student’s who want to join NCUIRE must find a New College research mentor. Before applying to NCUIRE, students should ask their favorite New College professors to be their mentor or they can reach out to other full time professors in the School of Humanities, Arts, & Cultural Studies, the School of Math & Natural Sciences, or the School of Social & Behavioral Sciences.

Prospective faculty mentors are to complete this form on behalf of a student who wishes to be named an NCUIRE Research Assistant. Do remember that students must be currently enrolled in a New College major to be eligible for a stipend. Students with majors from other ASU colleges must select the class credit option.

A copy of this completed form with all responses will be sent via email to the prospective faculty mentor only.

Applicants for NCUIRE Scholarships and Fellowships DO NOT complete this form.

This form cannot be saved and returned to later. Consider composing your responses in a word processor and pasting them into the fields below.
