News at Adelphi

The variety and sophistication of paid research projects undertaken by Adelphi students this summer reflects the University's emphasis on undergraduate research.

It all started in 2021—the (STEM)2 Network, funded by a $500,000 award from the National Science Foundation, set out to support faculty in transforming undergraduate STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) education from within.

Brian Stockman, PhD, and his student team will look into the deep past to uncover clues to how life began on our planet and how it might begin on other worlds.

Students in theater, political science, computer science and biochemistry expanded their horizons by working in a Broadway theater or a public relations defense firm, competing in a NASA competition, or collaborating on research at a university in Poland.

Internships are a foundation of an Adelphi education and one of the best ways students can prepare for careers. From shadowing surgical technicians at an eye bank to researching nanotechnology in Poland, our students spent the summer of 2024 having extraordinary internship experiences.

The National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Undergraduate Education has awarded Adelphi University and Principal Investigator Andrea Ward, PhD, associate provost for research and special projects, a $2.49 million grant for the “Ensuring STEM Student Success Through an Integrative Support Program.”

A collaboration between two faculty members and 10 undergraduates provides valuable new information about HVI reagents.

After a year and a half of COVID restrictions, Adelphi University celebrated the new academic year with the announcement of a major grant awarded to the College of Arts and Sciences.

We are deeply committed to supporting our students’ individual paths to success. Sometimes that can mean personalizing their course of study from across our 200-plus academic areas. Meet an extraordinary example: Taro Jones ’20, a gifted dancer and star chemist.
