NYU Summer Undergraduate Research Program Medical

At NYU Grossman School of Medicine, our Vilcek Institute of Graduate Biomedical Sciences offers qualified college students who have completed their sophomore or junior year the opportunity to participate in our Summer Undergraduate Research Program, also known as SURP. If you are interested in pursuing research in the biomedical sciences, our internship program can provide you with an inside glimpse into life beyond your undergraduate studies.

In a typical week, you spend most of your time conducting hands-on research under your research mentor’s direction in his or her lab. You also participate in weekly “Conversations with a Scientist/Physician” lunch sessions, journal clubs, and a series of Wednesday seminars followed by dinner at a local restaurant. There are also optional social activities, such as movie nights, museum tours, plays, concerts, and more.

At the end of the summer, you have the opportunity to present your research at the Leadership Alliance National Symposium. Opens in a new tab, also known as LANS. You also give a poster presentation to the NYU Langone research community.
