Applying for Summer Research (REUs & UROPs) (November 2018)

This student panel provides an overview of how to best to prepare to find and apply for the Science Center Summer Research Programs, REUs, UROPs, and other summer programs.

Research can be an important way for Wellesley students to gain a deeper insight into the applications of their academic experience. The Wellesley Science Center Summer Research Program, REUs (Research Experiences for Undergraduates), and UROPs (Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program) are excellent ways for Wellesley students to gain research experience over the summer (or even during the semester, for UROPs). Hear from students about about their experiences with these programs!
