Undergraduate Research Opportunities |
| At Towson, we offer several opportunities
for Undergraduate Research. One way to get your feet wet is by
doing a summer project. It's a great beginning for a future
Biologist! For information on paid summer research internships at other universities and research institutes, check out the National Science Foundation REU program site. Deadlines are nearing for applications so if you are interested check today! |
| Another way to see what's out there for
undergrads is to keep an eye on this site. When an opportunity
arises, it will be posted here in the green box below. Remember, aside from being
challenging and fun, gaining research experience as an undergraduate is
one way to put yourself above the competition. Go ahead, impress
yourself.
Extensive information on undergraduate research opportunities at TU and off-campus can be found in the Biology Major's Handbook.

Maryland Sea Grant's *Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Estuarine Science
*DETAILS:* - 12 week program during summer 2010. May 23 to August 15. - *$4200 stipend plus housing and travel* to and from site - http://www.mdsg.umd.edu/REU - Applications due: February 17, 2010
We select undergraduates in diverse disciplines, including engineering, biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, ecology and marine and environmental science. Details and application guidance at our web site: http://www.mdsg.umd.edu/REU A downloadable PDF flyer is available at:http://www.mdsg.umd.edu/programs/research/reu/reu2010.pdf We are particularly interested in supporting talented students from institutions where access to marine science and to research projects is limited and who are from underrepresented groups in science, technology, engineering and math (STEM). Since 1989, NSF has supported bringing students to conduct individual research projects with a scientist-mentor at either Chesapeake Biological Lab or Horn Point Lab of the University of Maryland Center for Environmental Science. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ If you are interested and ready for an exciting summer neuroscience research experience, consider applying for BRAIN 2010. The Atlanta-based BRAIN program invites applications for Fellows who would like to participate in a 10-week summer research program. This program provides full room and board plus a stipend. Those eligible to apply are undergraduates and recent post-bacs who are enthusiastic, hard working, detail oriented, and who want to engage in cutting edge neuroscience research. Some accepted Fellows will be working at the molecular or cellular level in laboratories, others will be working with small animals and some may be collecting data and doing research at outdoor field sites. Projects may include day or evening work. Be a part of an exciting summer research experience! For more information see: http://www.cbn-atl.org/education/brain.shtml.
