[rising_star]

Just the messenger here so I thought I'd pass this along in case there are any undergraduates on here that might be interested.

University of Washington Environmental Health Summer Research Program

Dates: June 24th – August 23rd 2013 in Seattle, WA

Stipend: $5,200

Application Deadline: February 15th 2013

The UW Environmental Health Research Experience Program (EHREP) is a funded, nine-week summer experience for undergraduates from any 2 or 4 year college or university with an interest in environmental health sciences. EHREP provides students with hands on experience in laboratories of leading researchers, introduces them to key environmental and occupational health issues while offering research exposure that will help them become competitive for graduate school. Students will work full-time under the supervision of a faculty mentor and will receive a stipend of $5,200.

One of the goals of this program is to increase and diversify the pool of future applicants for graduate study in this field, leading to more outstanding scientists selecting Environmental Health Sciences as a career focus. We strongly encourage students who are underrepresented in the sciences to apply.

Ah, I wish I knew about this when I was in undergrad! This sounds insanely fun! Shame there's no program for people post-masters. D:
