MURF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH FELLOWSHIPS
Posted by Jessica on December 15, 2008 in Research Information and Opportunities
The MURF program aims to increase the participation of underrepresented students (such as African American, Hispanic, and Native American, females who are underrepresented in their discipline, and first-generation college students) in science and engineering Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. programs and to make Caltech’s programs more visible to students not traditionally exposed to Caltech.
Eligibility: Students must be current sophomores through non-graduating seniors and must be U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents. A minimum GPA of 3.0 is required.
Support: MURF students will receive a $6000 award for the ten-week program. Additional housing and travel support may be provided.
Application: Online applications are due January 12, 2009.
