Summer Science Fellows will participate in group meetings and activities both before and after the summer research experience.
Eligibility:
Must be a first or second year student.
Must have completed at least one introductory science course with lab (biology, chemistry, computer science, geology, physics or psychology).
Applicants should have a strong interest and excitement about science and have seriously considered graduate study in proposed field.
