Summer Residential Research Program – UC DAVIS

UC Davis is offering an exciting opportunity called the Young Scholars Program for about 40 high-achieving high school students. It is a summer residential research program designed to expose students to the world of original research in the natural sciences with an emphasis on the biological, environmental and agricultural sciences.

Participants in the 2019 UC Davis Young Scholars Program will work one-on-one with research faculty and groups in state-of-the-art laboratories for six weeks. Each student will work on an individual project and prepare a journal-quality paper and symposium presentation about their work. In addition to scientific research, the UC Davis Young Scholars Program strives to introduce participants to the climate and culture of living and working on a university campus.

To be eligible for the summer of 2019, students must be currently enrolled as sophomores or juniors in high school and be rising juniors or seniors during the summer program. Applications are due March 16, 2019. For further details, please visit their website.
