More Info The Kelly Adirondack Research Center at Union College is proud to announce that we will once again offer summer research fellowships to undergraduate and/or graduate students who would like to conduct research on the Adirondack Park. Specifically, students who are interested in topics that examine the tensions between conservation, sustainability, and economic development is encouraged to apply for this fellowship. Though, we are open to other topics that students might like to explore as long as it relates to an issue impacting the Adirondacks. Last summer, we had three summer research fellows. A political science major from Union College who examined the proposed Adirondack Club and Resort, a urban policy and environmental studies major from Bard College who examined watersheds in the Park, and a economics major from Vassar College that researched micro-finance in the Adirondacks. At the conclusion of the fellowship, students presented their research to members of the Union community and individuals who have a concern for the environment.
