Trinity University’s HHMI Program is funding up to 11 Trinity students this summer in a summer research opportunity. These students are working on interdisciplinary projects, bringing together biology with chemistry, computer science, mathematics, physics, or psychology.

The awards include:

• A $3,500 stipend that provides support for ten weeks during the summer
• Free summer housing in Trinity University dormitories
• One semester hour of free academic credit
• A supply and travel budget of $2,000

What is expected of students:

• Ten weeks of full-time work dedicated to the project
• Participation in the weekly HHMI interdisciplinary research meetings
• A brief written report of the work completed at the end of the summer
• A poster presentation in the HHMI Student Research Symposium
• It is anticipated that work on the project continues during the academic year
