Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP)

The Summer Undergraduate Research Program (SURP) gives Rowan University undergraduate students an opportunity to work closely with faculty mentors and peers on valuable research while developing valuable technical, critical thinking, analytical, and communication skills. SURP research projects are available throughout the College of Science & Mathematics (CSM) departments of Biological & Biomedical Sciences, Chemistry, Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, and Psychology.

Rowan students selected to receive a SURP fellowship are funded for 5 or 10 weeks, depending on the professor and project, running anywhere from late May through early August. To enrich and complement the research activities happening over the summer, the College of Science & Mathematics also hosts several free events, such as socials, workshops, and a poster symposium, that SURP students participate in.
