PROGRAM OVERVIEW:

The NYU Shanghai Summer Research Experience Program in Molecular Science 
(SRPMS) is designed to foster entry into chemistry and biology research-
centered careers for highly motivated graduates and undergraduates with a 
strong interest in chemistry, biology, or related scientific disciplines. 
The primary goal of this program is to extend NYU Shanghai's research 
opportunities to non-NYU Shanghai students and to diversify the scientific 
workforce in the field of Molecular Science. Students apply for positions 
in a 2-month long program with flexible starting dates. Admitted students 
will have the opportunity to actively participate in research projects 
under the mentorship of a professor who is at the forefront of his or her 
field of chemistry and biology. Each student conducts a research project 
under the direction of his or her mentor. At the end of the program, 
students produce a report summarizing the outcomes of their research 
project. Financial support will be provided for eligible students for the 
duration of the program. In addition, a limited number of scholarships are 
available to help offset travel costs. For more information, please visit
