Cornell is a bustling place in the summer. Many
undergraduates participate in research during the summer in Ithaca.
Cornell has at least 15 summer programs sponsored by the Howard
Hughes Medical Institute, the National Science Foundation, as well
as Cornell and private funds.
Students in the program receive:

on campus.

All participants will give a presentation on their research at the
Leadership Alliance Summer Research Symposium and at the Closing
Day Symposium and Mentor Luncheon.
