Summer Undergraduates Program
The CPRIT Summer Undergraduate Research program aims to provide an interactive and fulfilling experience in cancer research to talented undergraduate students by creating situations for them to interact with CPRIT scholars and TRIUMPH fellows.
The program emphasizes recruitment of under-represented minorities through outreach to select universities.
CPRIT Faculty Mentors
CPRIT scholar faculty mentors serve as direct supervisors for CPRIT scholars or as co-mentors on student advisory or supervisory committees. CPRIT faculty mentors participate in all aspects of the CPRIT training program, including formal instruction and supervision of research.
