Biology Opportunities

Nebraska Summer Biology and Chemistry Research DEADLINE MARCH 1. 10-week residential summer research with competitive stipends, room and board, travel/transport. graduate school preparation workshops. social and networking activities, and more.

Due to the Federal Government Shutdown, we have extended the REU application deadline to February 15th! The MDI Biological Laboratory’s Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program aims to engage students in scientific explorations in the Laboratory’s focus area, comparative regenerative biology, while providing them with opportunities to build skills important to successful careers in the biological sciences. For 10 weeks, each REU student will conduct independent research under the mentorship of a research scientist while having access to state-of-the-art research laboratories and core facilities and support staff.

16 PAID internships are being offered through CSU COAST in a broad range of fields including fisheries management, species conservation and protection, ocean data analysis and synthesis, and marine engineering. Undergraduate (second year) and graduate students are encouraged to apply. Deadline: March 4, 2019, 5 pm Pacific time.

The Dean of Medical Education’s Academy for Research, Clinical, and Health Equity Scholarship (ARCHES) is a six-week program for ten undergraduate students who are rising juniors and seniors interested in pursuing medical studies.

Deadline: Monday, February 4, 2019.

Biology professors Dan Hernández and Mark McKone are accepting applications for summer research assistants for summer 2019. The research will focus on various projects in the Carleton Arboretum on the ecology of prairie restoration, soil carbon and nutrient cycling, and the impacts of mammal herbivory on prairie communities.

Get funded to do science or math research at another institution this summer! Application deadline 5:00 PM, March 15.

Aquatic Chemical Ecology (ACE) at Georgia Tech is a summer research program supported by the National Science Foundation REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) program. ACE at Georgia Tech gives you the opportunity to perform exciting research with our faculty in the schools of Biological Sciences, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, Chemistry & Biochemistry, Civil & Environmental Engineering, and Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering. You’ll participate in research with one or more of our faculty, learn about careers in science and engineering, and see how scientists blend knowledge and skills from physics, chemistry and biology to investigate some of the most challenging problems in environmental sciences. We encourage applications from undergraduate students who are citizens or permanent residents of the U.S., especially attending universities other than Georgia Tech. The following three areas comprise the research activities covered by faculty in the Aquatic Chemical Ecology program: 

• Area 1. Biological and geochemical transformations of chemicals in aquatic ecosystems.
• Area 2. Sensory biology and ecology of aquatic chemical communication.
• Area 3. Ecological roles and consequences of chemicals in aquatic environments.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR), one of Minnesota’s largest state agencies, offers a broad range of paid internships for college students. Internships are available at locations across the state.

The 2019 summer program will run from June 10 to August 16, 2019 at NASA Ames Research Center. SLSTP provides undergraduate students entering their junior or senior years with professional experience in space life science disciplines

Applications are being accepted for the 2019 Research Experience for Undergraduates program and summer field courses at MSU’s W. K. Kellogg Biological
Station. Applications for the KBS REU Program will close on March 1. Program is May 19-August 2, 2019.
