Applications & Requirements

Application Deadline: March 1, 2008

“I've really enjoyed my time here at UMASS this summer. I've learned an incredible amount about scientific research from my PI and the grad students in my lab, and the whole experience has made me sure that I definitely do want to go to grad school in either chemistry or biochemistry. I'm so glad I had this opportunity, and I feel really fortunate to have met such a great group of students with whom I have so much in common.”
- Jessica Bauer
2007 CURE student
