First Year Summer Research Funding
Many students can work with their research streams over the summer on fellowships or as a volunteer researcher. During this time, students can get a head start on their projects, and are granted a higher degree of independence and responsibility.
Eligibility
FRI students and ARI students (including international students) participating in their first summer research experience (following their first spring semester with the program).
**FRI alumni conducting more advanced summer projects in or outside of stream labs should apply to the Advanced Summer Research Fellowship.
