Description:
About the Program: SURGE provides college students (and some recent college graduates) outside of Stanford, who are underrepresented in the field of Earth and Environmental Sciences, an opportunity to work on research projects with a Stanford faculty for eight weeks during the summer.

Areas of Study and Eligibility: Stanford SURGE touches on a variety of disciplines, including geochemistry, geophysics, Earth systems and energy resource engineering. We also encourage students majoring in chemistry, math, computer sciences, engineering, and biology who are interested in the Earth and environmental sciences to apply.

Logistics: Students receive room & board on Stanford's campus, a $3,000 stipend, and seven-week GRE course, which amounts to approximately an $11,000 package. In addition to working closely with Stanford faculty and PhD students in a Stanford lab, students also present their research in front of the Stanford community at the SURGE research symposium, taking place in the last week of the program. More information on SURGE and the application can be found on our website.
