SURP students arrive at Einstein in mid-June and spend nine weeks working in a laboratory. Students are matched to a laboratory in the area of interest they indicate on their application. At the end of the program, students present their research in a poster session.
In addition to research, SURP students participate in a variety of complementary scientific activities:
 |
| • |
|
small-group meetings to discuss their research with other students, |
|
| • |
|
weekly faculty seminars on hot research topics, |
|
| • |
|
a workshop on ethical issues in science and medicine, and |
|
| • |
|
a career planning workshop.
|
SURP students are considered members of Einstein’s student body during their nine-week stay, making them eligible to take part in all social activities on campus. In addition, several trips and activities are planned just for SURP students:
|
| • |
|
Baseball game |
|
| • |
|
Day at the Bronx Zoo |
|
| • |
|
Broadway show |
|
| • |
|
Student mixer |
|
| • |
|
Student-faculty luncheons and barbeques |
The SURP summer internship includes:
|
| • |
 |
free housing in the student residence complex on the Einstein campus, |
|
| • |
|
a $3,000 stipend, and |
|
| • |
|
up to $500 in transportation assistance (for students who live outside the New York City metropolitan area only). Please note: international travel cannot be reimbursed. |
