Illinois Research Experience for Undergraduates program urges students to apply to do summer research at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The program will run for 10 weeks, May 29 – August 3, 2018.
They particularly seek students who have not previously conducted research, are members of underrepresented groups (including women), or are first-generation college attendees. Students who have completed coursework at the sophomore to junior level by June 1, 2018 are the intended scholarship recipients. Because of high demand for the program in prior years, applicants should be planning to obtain a Bachelor of Science or Bachelor of Arts degree in chemistry or related fields between January 1, 2019 and August 31, 2020.
The scholarship provides:
*$5,000 stipend for a ten-week stay in our department
*Housing at Europa House in Urbana, within walking distance to the Department of Chemistry and the rest of the campus
*Round trip travel cost (up to $800)
Students must have at least two semesters of organic chemistry lecture and laboratory. They should also be inclined to pursue graduate studies in chemistry. Applications may be made at the website https://chemistry.illinois.
Students should apply as soon as possible. Applications received by February 16, 2018 will receive full consideration. Files that are incomplete at 11:59 PM on the closing date will not be kept open for consideration. Letters of recommendation must be received by the deadline.
