SUMMARY:Finding a Summer Research Opportunity
DESCRIPTION:
 There are a variety of summer opportunities available 
 for students. Programs are hosted by 
 colleges and universities around the United States 
 and they provide an intensive research 
 experience on a particular topic within a scholarly 
 discipline. Participants generally work 
 with an advisor on a research project over 
 the duration of their respective programs (usually 
 10 to 12 weeks). Many host universities 
 cover all expenses (including travel, accommodations, 
 and food) and provide a stipend. For 
 undergraduates with plans for graduate or professional 
 school after MSU, summer research 
 provides the opportunity to expand your professional 
 network and acquire experience in an 
 area of interest. In this workshop, you will 
 learn more about summer research, the benefits 
 of participation, and effective search strategies, 
 including how to find and apply for 
 opportunities. This program is a repeat of the 
 workshop held on October 28, 2014. Sponsored 
 by the Undergraduate Research Office. For more 
 information, contact Megan Shannahan, Assistant 
 Director for Undergraduate Research, at
