Undergraduates back to top

The Department of Environmental and Biomolecular Systems (EBS) welcomes summer undergraduate research interns. Please explore the research areas of EBS faculty to identify laboratories that interest you (http://ogi.edu/ebs/people/). Because the OGI School of Science and Engineering has no facilities for housing, most students are Portland area residents or have families in the greater Portland metropolitan area. The formal intern program will begin June 25, 2007 and end August 3, 2007*. The EBS Summer Intern Committee will award several paid internships, with a stipend of $2400**.

To formally apply, please send the following information by email to christin@ohsu.edu, or mail to: Nancy Christie, Mail Code OGI 100, Department of Environmental & Biomolecular Systems, OGI School of Science & Engineering, Oregon Health & Science University, 20000 N.W.
