Full-time Summer Research Programs

Darling Summer Research Fellowships Scholars: Establishment of the Hugh and Hazel Darling Center for Applied Scientific Computing has provided support to foster collaborative activities that highlight the interplay between computational techniques and mathematical modeling.  A multidisciplinary command of programming is crucial for formulating hypotheses, designing experiments, interpreting results and simulating the dynanamics of complex natural and physical systems.  The goal of these fellowships is to have students across the Natural Sciences engage in research that is full-time, faculty-mentored, novel and presentable outside the university.  Projects across a broad range of science disciplines are desired, but all must meet the criteria of being research, and must be computationally driven. The deadline for the Summer 2012 fellowships is March 1, 2012.  Click here for more information.

Overton Summer Research Program in Economics: The Overton Summer Research Program in Economics is a new and exciting opportunity for qualified undergraduate students to pursue their research interests in economics.  Students will work one-on-one with members of the M.S. Economics faculty to develop, quantify and prepare original research.  Participants will be members of an active student research community that fosters collaboration and innovation across disciplines.  The deadline for the Summer 2012 awards is March 1, 2012.

Pearson Scholars Summer Program: The Pearson Scholars for Leadership and Engagement in Global Society are available to students in the Global Studies program.  During a 10-12 week intensive summer program, Pearson Scholars will participate in experiential learning opportunities--"domestic immersion" projects--that expose students to global issues and diverse communities in Los Angeles (and possibly other global cities), and to give students the opportunity to be agents of change in society through civic engagement.  Please contact Dr. Akiko Yasuike (ayasuike@callutheran.edu) or Dr. Haco Hoang (hhoang@callutheran.edu) for more information.

Summer Undergraduate Research Fellows (SURFs): The SURF program is a university-supported program that supports undergraduate research in disciplines not supported by our other research programs.  In particular, projects that are NOT in the Natural Science Division, the Economics Department or the Global Studies program.  Up to five awards will be given for the Summer of 2012.  The goal of these fellowships is to have students engage in research that is full-time, faculty-mentored, novel and presentable outside the university.  Projects across a broad range of disciplines are desired, but all must meet the criteria of being research.  Creative work projects can certainly meet the criteria, but must be able to provide ample focus on the process, not just the outcome. The deadline for the Summer 2012 fellowships is March 1, 2012.Click here for more information.

Swenson Summer Research Fellowships: CLU students in the Natural Science Division can apply for one of 15 Swenson Science Summer Research Fellowships. These are paid full-time research fellowships that enable students to work one-on-one with a Science Division faculty mentor during the entire summer.  The deadline for the Summer 2012 fellowships is March 1, 2012.  Click here for more information.
