The following programs provide an enriching opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students to conduct research, to meet fellow students in their areas, and to learn more about graduate programs. Summer programs typically run for 6-8 weeks and provide stipends (like a paid internship) and pay for travel and lodging expenses. Many of the following programs have deadlines in early February or early March. Therefore, please study the programs and apply early. Application packets typically consist of the application, an essay, a transcript of grades, a resume, and 2-3 letters of recommendation. We highly encourage you to apply to at least three programs!
