The Duncan MacRae Jr. Public Policy Fund supports research opportunities and internship experiences for Public Policy majors through the Duncan MacRae Jr. Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF), the Duncan MacRae Jr. Mentored Research Assistant Grant and the Duncan MacRae Jr. Public Policy Internship Grant.

The Duncan MacRae Jr. Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) in Public Policy allows majors to carry out innovative policy-relevant research under the supervision of public policy faculty member at UNC-Chapel Hill. The Public Policy SURF aims to create an opportunity for majors to engage in independent research for at least 9 weeks with a minimum 20 hours/week during the summer.

The Duncan MacRae Jr. Mentored Research Assistant Grant aims to promote opportunities for undergraduates to engage in mentored research with full-time public policy faculty.

The Duncan MacRae Jr. Public Policy Internship Grant aims to support internship opportunities for public policy majors and to defer some of the costs associated with engaging in unpaid summer internships.
