The Chemistry Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (Chem-SURF) at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), provides a unique 10-week summer
research opportunity for undergraduates to become fully immersed in a wide
range of exciting, cutting-edge specialized and interdisciplinary research
projects. With a goal of helping students gain the skills and confidence to
become independent researchers and make better career decisions, the
experience focuses on intensive and direct contact with a large number of
faculty and their graduate students through a series of pre-research
lectures, hands-on projects, weekly seminars and workshops, industry field
trips, and social activities.
Participants will have the opportunity to choose from a variety of
challenging and original research projects that explore a diverse and
exciting range of topics in chemical biology, chemical physics, and
analytical, atmospheric, bioinorganic, bioorganic, theoretical, inorganic,
organic, physical, and polymer chemistry.
The Chem-SURF Program is committed to promoting diversity within the fields
of science and engineering. Women, underrepresented minorities, and
individuals from economically and socially disadvantaged backgrounds are
especially encouraged to apply. Community College students, who are
transferring to a 4-year institution next year, are also encouraged to
apply.
