The Summer Research Program provides undergraduate students and recent graduates with an intensive research experience. Participants are involved in all phases of research study under the direction of a scientific staff member. This program provides excellent experience in laboratory research for prospective graduate students. Participants must be majoring in a scientific discipline relevant to the research programs at the Institute. Participants receive a stipend and a travel allowance.
Positions are extremely limited and therefore highly competitive.
Minimum requirements are that applicants have completed their Junior or Senior years in college, have a GPA in their major of at least 3.5, and be US citizens or permanent residents. Applications are due by March 15 each year and must be submitted on our application forms. Three letters of reference and transcripts are required and must be sent in the same package with the application forms.
