LINCOLN, NEB. — Sydney Legler of Powell is among 172 Husker undergraduates who have been awarded stipends by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln to participate in research with a faculty mentor during the fall and spring semesters.

Legler, a senior microbiology major, will participate in a project under faculty mentor Scott Gardner in the School of Biological Sciences as part of Nebraska's Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experience Program. Students receive stipends of $3,600 to engage in intensive research or creative activity for 10 hours per week. The students' projects span academic disciplines including engineering, chemistry, modern languages and literatures, psychology, art and art history, architecture, special education, and fisheries and wildlife.

UCARE participants will present posters on their research and creative activities during Student Research Days, April 6, at the Nebraska Union. Applications for the 2027-28 UCARE program open Nov. 4, with a deadline of Feb. 3. For more information and to apply, visit go.unl.edu/2rpt.
