Butler Summer Institute

The Butler Summer Institute has been developed to provide an opportunity, and privilege, for "the best and brightest" of Butler's students to engage in learning that is creative, experiential, and investigation oriented, to interact with Butler faculty, and to build a community of learners.

The benefits of being a Butler Scholar:

  • Meet, interact and support other students equally interested in research or other creative endeavor.
  • Establish close professional relationships with members of the faculty.
  • Work on a project that may lead to a publication in a peer-reviewed journal, a presentation at a scholarly conference, or a public performance.
  • Contribute to the Institute's mission and tradition.
  • Explore your commitment to original research or creative activity.
  • Engage in learning that makes critical connections between the classroom, lab, different courses of study and the undergraduate and educational community.
