Summer at SEAS

The Dean’s Office invites students who are spending the summer doing research in labs on campus to participate in our [email protected] program. [email protected] is a summer enrichment program comprised of weekly seminars and presentations on a variety of topics including faculty research, scientific writing, presentation skills, occupational health and safety, as well as panels on graduate school and industry. Seminars take place during the work day and faculty encourage their students to participate in these programs.  Students are also encouraged to prepare posters for the annual Engineering and Science Research Symposium that takes place each fall.

Every year, the Dean’s Office supports summer research opportunities with matching funds directly to principal investigators and faculty. Depending on your particular interests, previous experience may not be necessary. Students are expected to work full-time for the duration of the program, so participation in this program is not compatible with attending summer school, working at another job, or any other serious time commitment.  

How Do I Apply?

Students interested in a funded research position should review the available opportunity listed on the Research Projects page and send their inquiry directly to the faculty member listed.

Stipends for [email protected] positions are restricted to Columbia Engineering students only.
