STEM Summer Research Opportunity at Kean University


The Group Summer Scholars Research Program (GSSRP) is a 6-week, hands-on research experience aimed at attracting and developing talented students who are interested in pursuing an education in a STEM field.  Upon entering the program students are divided into small research teams that are paired with a faculty mentor conducting authentic scientific research in Analytical Chemistry, Virtual Reality & Scientific Visualization, Microbiomes & Bioinformatics, Cancer Biology, Computational Mathematics and Modern Drug Discovery.  Students learn how to conduct basic and applied research during this program and develop a true appreciation of the scientific research process while contributing first hand to the acquisition of new scientific knowledge.  

The 2019 GSSRP runs from July 8 - August 15 (Mon-Thurs) and applications are now being accepted.  The application deadline is March 15th.  For more information, you can visit our website at: www.kean.edu/summer-scholar

Please note that scholarships are provided to low-income families and those with financial need to help cover the cost of the program ($1,700).  This is currently not an overnight program; students are responsible for getting themselves to and from Kean University each day.
