The Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) program is a great way for students to participate in “high-impact learning experiences” over the summer months. The program brings together research teams (faculty and students) from across CAS to work collaboratively on scholarly projects. In addition, the program provides weekly BrainFood events, which are community building and informational sessions for faculty and students. Students accepted into the SURE program receive a financial stipend ($450/week) and have the option for free on-campus housing for the duration of the project.
Student Applications for the SURE 2022 program are now available, for the first time, on UP’s Handshake platform. All students, not just CAS students, are eligible to apply.
