The Dean's Summer Scholarship program supports a three-month summer research experience to three incoming first professional dental students each year. A call for applications is sent out in late spring to all incoming students and they are required to submit a brief application describing their past type of research and the area of research they are interested in (oral cancer, tissue engineering, public health/epidemiology, genetics, physiology/oral function, dental informatics). A mentor is matched to the students based on their area of interest at the time of application. A monthly stipend is provided.
The Dean’s Summer Research Scholarship Program was established to support a summer research-intensive training experience for students who have been accepted, but have not yet matriculated into the School of Dental Medicine’s DMD Program.
This is a twelve-week program in which accepted students develop a research project between May and August prior to enrollment into the School of Dental Medicine. Three independent study credits will be earned during the summer program, as well as the opportunity to present a poster at the Annual Spring Research Symposium.
