Imagine that the first experiment you’ve ever performed led to a publication in a high impact journal. Feelings of elation and accomplishment slowly creep into your mind as you simultaneously wrestle with the thoughts of disbelief. This is what happened to Michael Mazzola, a PhD candidate from the Division of Medical Sciences at Harvard Medical School (HMS) and the Chief Operating Officer at the Journal of Emerging Investigators (JEI) , along with Eddie Rodriguez , Dean of Students at Somerville Public Schools, and myself in the early months 2019. We committed ourselves to enable and empower local Boston middle and high school students from historically underrepresented backgrounds in STEM 1 to perform an independent research project while learning how scientists communicate through journal articles and how the scientific method can address community needs. This life-long dream of ours was a way of giving back to the community by allowing minority students to gain experience in the scientific peer-review process at a world-renowned institution. By partnering with JEI, a free, open-access science journal for middle and high school students, we created a unique program that would not only generate an inclusive community of STEM-focused students from underserved communities in the local Boston area, but also expose the students to various stages of scientific inquiry and methods. Our program included generating a hypothesis-driven experiment, guiding students on the required steps to successfully publish, and provided the students with an opportunity to publish at the conclusion of our program.
With over 200 graduate student and postdoctoral volunteers, JEI staff, such as Michael Mazzola, provided scientific peer reviewer feedback in addition to copy-editing, which supported young scientists’ communication and critical thinking skills. So far, JEI has published over 500 articles by young scientists from all over the world; 15% of these were generated by middle and high school students in Massachusetts.
We understand that writing a scientific article and providing data requires strict perseverance throughout the publication process, which is no easy feat. However, many institutions determine success by way of the number of scholarships published and by the caliber of journals in which they are published 2 . Therefore, introducing scientific communication and publishing to students early in their careers is highly beneficial, especially for underrepresented minorities, as this will consequently increase their retention rates in STEM careers 3,4 . We also recognized that strong mentorship from individuals who resemble the identities of students is critical to the success of underrepresented minorities 5-7 . Without this support, immersion in a strong scientific curriculum, and early scientific communication skill-building, even the most enthusiastic students lose confidence, feel isolated, and ultimately are less likely to continue pursuing STEM careers 3,4,7-10 . Because of this, we aimed to create a unique program that would not only generate an inclusive community of middle and high school students, but that would also afford them an opportunity to become successful STEM researchers.
Knowing this task would have challenges, we fostered connections with Eddie Rodriguez to help market our program to the students and their families. When we contacted Eddie about the idea, it was envisioned as a sort of “camp”, where students not only attended lab meetings and shadowed PIs and postdoctoral fellows in the laboratories, but they also obtained a finished product by way of a publication. After several brainstorming sessions, we generated our program, the JEI Mini-PhD Camp .
“Education is still the civil rights battleground for students who have been historically disenfranchised. I sincerely believe that mentoring urban students, while providing Science programming that pushes students to the edge of their own limits, speaks to the effectiveness of the camp. As a lifelong urban educator, I envision the programming as a tool for self-efficacy that could create a seismic shift in science education in urban districts and become a vehicle for true social reform.” Eddie Rodriguez, Dean of Students of Somerville Public School District, and Director of Education and curriculum at JEI.
Throughout the five-week program, the high school students were methodically introduced to the concept of antibiotic resistant bacteria and were then tasked with hypothesizing which surfaces in their schools, homes, and communities were most likely to support antibiotic resistant bacterial growth. In teams of four, students were given supplies and encouraged to swab locations based on a narrative of their choice. One group decided to compare the surfaces of their school bathrooms, while another decided to swab foods at varying levels of processing (unwashed, washed, cooked, and rotten). They recorded their information onto a spreadsheet that compared quantitative and qualitative analysis of their observations and devised their conclusions based on this data. Having the students pull their conclusions together was another challenge, as it required asking research questions based on a particular scientific phenomenon. Furthermore, the students then summarized all of their efforts into written form and submitted it for publishing. After some polishing, undergoing scientific peer review, and then copy-editing, our students became published authors from the experiments they performed during the camp. In a post-program survey, 100% of students reported having increased confidence in their ability to identify methods and publish in JEI as scientists. The students also stated they would highly recommend the camp to their friends.
Although the second iteration of our camp was disrupted by COVID-19, Michael, Eddie, and I are planning to expand next year’s camp to include more high school students from the Boston area, and even include a virtual feature so we are able to expand our outreach. We decided to alter the research focus, introducing students to computational analysis and asking them to perform a neuroscience-based modeling experiment.
In addition to supporting the Mini-PhD Camp , JEI is currently partnering with Dana Farber’s Cure Program to extend their reach to other high school students interested in STEM careers. If you are interested in volunteering for CURE as a mentor, please sign up here. More information on mentoring can be found here .

- Joint/Dual Doctoral Programs
- Programs of Study
- Doctoral Programs
- Masters Programs
- Joint/Dual Masters Programs
- MA and PhD Certificates
- Joint BA/MA Degrees
- Undergraduate Programs
The University of Chicago is renowned for its interdisciplinary culture, and doctoral students can pursue a variety of joint or dual degree programs. Opportunities to create a specific combination can be discussed with one’s Director of Graduate Study.
Existing programs include:
Joint PhD in Anthropology and Linguistics
In addition to linguistic anthropology as a sub-field within the Department of Anthropology , a joint Ph.D. program is available to students who are admitted to both the Department of Anthropology and the Department of Linguistics . Administratively, the student is admitted to, and remains registered in, the primary, or “home” department, and subsequently seeks admission to the second department in joint residence status. Students approved to pursue the joint degree program must complete the requirements of both departments, including the distinct introductory and advanced courses stipulated by each, the departmental qualifying examination in appropriate special fields, and the language requirements, including additional foreign languages for the Linguistics Ph.D. Students should declare interest in the Joint Degree Program on the initial graduate application to the Department, and should discuss this interest personally with linguistic anthropology faculty soon after arrival on campus.
Joint PhD in Psychology and Linguistics
Students in the Department of Linguistics in the Division of the Humanities who wish to work toward a joint PhD in Psychology's Cognition Program and in Linguistics must be admitted to the Department of Psychology .
Joint PhD in Financial Economics
Established in 2006, the Joint PhD Program in Financial Economics is offered jointly by the Kenneth C. Griffin Department of Economics and the Finance dissertation area at Chicago Booth . The aim of this program is to leverage the strengths of both sponsors in training PhD students interested in financial economics. Students must satisfy program requirements for the PhD in both departments.
Joint PhD in Psychology and Business
Established in 2009, the Joint Program in Psychology and Business is overseen jointly by the Department of Psychology and the Behavioral Science dissertation area at Chicago Booth. The aim of this program is to connect the large number of social, cognitive, and organizational psychologists at Chicago Booth and within the Department of Psychology. To qualify for the joint program, a student must be admitted into either the Psychology or the Business graduate program.
JD/PhD Programs
Doctoral students in Social Sciences who are also admitted to the University of Chicago Law School may pursue a concurrent PhD/JD program , where there is an explicit and authorized close association between legal education and doctoral training. Students in the concurrent degree program alternate registration sites between the two units. Students complete all requirements for both degrees. Applicants must apply to both programs separately. The University of Chicago Law School has established a fellowship program to support students pursuing a concurrent JD/PhD at the University of Chicago, which may grant fellowship aid during the Law School years.
MD/PhD in Medicine, the Social Sciences, and Humanities
The program in Medicine, the Social Sciences and Humanities (MeSH) at the University of Chicago trains medical students to become innovative physician-scholars at the critical interface of medicine and society. The MeSH program is an opportunity for students interested in obtaining an MD and a PhD in a field outside of the traditional biological and physical sciences. Students interested in MeSH may pursue a doctoral degree among any of the graduate programs relevant to the social sciences and humanities at the University of Chicago.
Joint PhD in Social Thought & Classics
The Joint Ph.D. Program in Social Thought and Classics is intended for students whose study of a particular issue or text from the ancient Greek and Roman world requires a broadly inter-disciplinary approach alongside a professional mastery of philological skills. Those interested in pursuing this joint degree program must first be admitted in EITHER the Committee on Social Thought OR the Department of Classics and complete at minimum the two quarter language survey (Greek or Latin), offered by the Department of Classics, with an average grade of B or higher. Application shall then be made to the second department and, provided that the standards of admission to that department are met, students will be admitted to joint degree status.
Joint PhD Social Thought & Philosophy
The Joint Ph.D. Program in Social Thought and Philosophy is designed to provide students with equal in-depth training, simultaneously provided by the Committee on Social Thought and the Department of Philosophy . Those interested in pursuing this joint degree program must first be admitted in EITHER the Committee on Social Thought OR the Department of Philosophy. After commencing the program of study, application shall then be made to the second department and, provided that the standards of admission to that department are met, students will be admitted to joint degree status.
Other Joint and Ad Hoc Degree Possibilities
Students admitted to any doctoral program in Social Sciences may subsequently petition the University to create a joint program with another department. Such individually-created joint degree programs begin in the second year of graduate studies or later. In all cases, students complete the separate program requirements for each degree, with no additional residence requirement, and write one Ph.D. dissertation that separately meets the dissertation requirements of each department.

Doctoral Degrees
A doctoral degree requires the satisfactory completion of an approved program of advanced study and original research of high quality..
Please note that the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Doctor of Science (ScD) degrees are awarded interchangeably by all departments in the School of Engineering and the School of Science, except in the fields of biology, cognitive science, neuroscience, medical engineering, and medical physics. This means that, excepting the departments outlined above, the coursework and expectations to earn a Doctor of Philosophy and for a Doctor of Science degree from these schools are generally the same. Doctoral students may choose which degree they wish to complete.
Applicants interested in graduate education should apply to the department or graduate program conducting research in the area of interest. Some departments require a doctoral candidate to take a “minor” program outside of the student’s principal field of study; if you wish to apply to one of these departments, please consider additional fields you may like to pursue.
