Summer Undergraduate Research Programs
The CIC (Committee on Institutional Cooperation) Summer Research Opportunities Program is a program to expose talented undergraduates to professional and educational opportunities in the academy. The goal of the program is to increase the number of underrepresented students who pursue academic careers by enhancing their preparation for graduate study through intensive research experiences with faculty mentors.
The Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program is funded by the U.S. Department of Education and strives to encourage students from disadvantaged backgrounds to pursue doctoral studies. Students with strong academic potential will be provided with extensive support and mentorship as McNair Scholars at The University of Iowa.
