Besides these programs, you might find other possibilities by looking at other professional societies or SURF programs (for summer research). If you find an interesting program, let Professor Williamsen know. As we learn about new opportunities, we will add them to this list.
Primarily Summer
A number of BCMB faculty members have students work in their laboratories in the summer, either funded by Ursinus or through external grants. Many students work for eight weeks at 40 hours per week, but some of the externally funded projects are extended to ten weeks. Talk to individual faculty members for more information. Applications are usually submitted at the beginning of the Spring Semester.

If you want a better idea of what graduate school will be like, one of these summer research opportunities (primarily at doctoral-granting institutions) may be for you. We have had a number of students who have participated in the program over the past years. Click on the link under a participating institution for more details on a particular program.

Zannoni SURF Institutional Programs Funded for Summer
A list of institutions that have summer research programs for students interested in pharmacology. American Society for Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics (ASPET) also sponsors individual student grants if you can find an ASPET member to sponsor your research.

Internships
The office has developed links with a number of local companies and is the clearinghouse for all internships.
Research Abroad
Several funding and research experiences are available during the school year or during a summer.
