CCJ Undergraduate Fellow Interest Form

The Center for Criminal Justice projects are on timelines and funding that do not typically align with the LUC academic calendar, so we hire graduate fellows as needed throughout the year.  If you are interested in working with us, please fill out the following form. 

We will follow-up with you within two weeks of your form submission to discuss possible areas of involvement and need in our research.  

Please note: only undergraduate students currently enrolled in a program at Loyola University Chicago are eligible for a paid  Fellow position.
