Nebraska’s summer program offers research opportunities in the
science, technology, engineering, and mathematics fields in addition to a new
interdisciplinary Minority Health Disparities program doing research in and
around the social sciences. A complete listing of faculty mentors and research
project descriptions can be found on our website at http://www.unl.edu/summerprogram.
Students can also find information about program benefits including a
competitive stipend, room and board, travel expenses, and more.

Nanohybrid Materials

During the Nebraska
Summer Research Program, students receive first-hand exposure to research
and the experience of graduate school. They work closely with faculty mentors
and research teams of graduate students and other summer scholars. Students
also have opportunities to participate in meaningful social and professional
development activities outside of the laboratory.
Our online application makes it easy for students to apply. Priority
review begins Friday, February 1 and all applications must be completed by
Monday, February 17. Students historically underrepresented in
graduate education and students from academic institutions where research
programs are limited are especially encouraged to apply.
Please feel free to forward this to your students or to download our
flyer to post. If you or your students have questions, please feel
free to contact me directly.
