The Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE), is a ten-week program tailored to students who are US citizens and/or Permanent Residents, considering a Ph.D. Graduate Program pursuant to their undergraduate degree.

This program, designed to give motivated undergraduate students graduate-level experience in a research environment, focuses on hands-on lab experience. SURE students will be spending a majority of their time working in the lab, attending lab meetings, and interacting with members of other labs.

Each student will work under the supervision of a faculty mentor. As well as laboratory research, SURE features a weekly journal club, social activities, and a closing presentation where the students will present their research in a poster session.

The program dates are: June 1st - August 8th.

Students chosen for the program will be paid $4,000 for the session (students chosen for the program will be responsible for their own travel and on-campus housing expenses).

Please direct any questions you may have to Pat White.
