Carleton has two programs to which Carleton students can apply for funding to pay stipends for winter break and summer research. The programs support faculty-student research at Carleton or other institutions. Typically, about 70 students are on campus each summer doing research with Carleton faculty in science and math fields.

1. HHMI Summer Science Fellowships for summer research at Carleton or elsewhere (4 per summer per cohort). Students apply in early January.
   
2. Kolenkow-Reitz awards for winter break or summer research at another institution (~9 per summer, ~14 per winter break). Students apply in October and February.
   

The Carleton College student stipend for summer 2013 research is $4,200 for 10 weeks of full-time work.
