Summer Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE)

Shippensburg University is pleased to offer the Summer Undergraduate Research Experience program as a way for students to work with faculty on research over the summer. The purpose of the SURE program is to support faculty/student research pairs during the summer. The goals are twofold: to nurture student researchers and to provide faculty members with paid student research assistants. Students selected for the program will receive a summer stipend for research tasks assigned by a faculty supervisor. By assisting faculty members in their research, students selected for the program will learn the knowledge and skills necessary for conducting advanced research in their field. 

Award

• Funded projects will be allotted up to $750 for up to 100 hours of student work at $7.50/hour; if multiple students are working on a project, the 100 hours must be split among the students. 
• Students selected for the SURE program may take advantage of free on-campus housing in Kieffer Hall in the new suites.
• Students selected for the SURE program may purchase 15-meal punch cards for $96 at Reisner dining hall.
• Students and faculty members are expected to present their SURE results at the Academic Day in August.
