Summer Research Support for Undergraduates

Each summer, the CIS runs a summer research program across the sciences that hosts more than 100 Wesleyan undergraduates.  In addition to faculty mentored independent research, we offer a weekly seminar series, skills workshops, and the summer culminates with a poster session with presentations of research by all students. Financial support is available for students enrolled at Wesleyan.

The 2025 Research in Science Summer Program will be held Monday, June 2 - Friday, July 25, 2025.

• General Summer Research information, including full application requirements, is available at this link.
• The Application forSummer 2025 will be available starting in January. Applications are due March 7, 2025.

Summer research students will have access to our Moodle web site which provides information about the summer program including details of our summer workshops and poster session.
