ABOUT US
The Center for Research and Fellowships (CRF) aims to ignite curiosity, exploration, and discovery through student research programs, the Presidential Scholars Program (PSP), and support for nationally competitive scholarships and fellowships. Through holistic advising and tailored professional development programs, we equip students to become changemakers and transformative leaders.
CRF has connected hundreds of Villanova students, alumni, faculty and staff to programs of research and scholarship around the world since it was established in 2001.
A WELCOME TO ALL
Aligned with Villanova’s Augustinian Catholic mission, CRF strives to create a welcoming environment across our three key areas, ensuring that all perspectives and experiences are respected and valued. The CRF team does this through learning from and engaging with materials and activities that advance the University’s core values; following best practices for advising, including inclusive advising; and valuing all backgrounds and perspectives for the opportunities that we support.
