Welcome
to the UM PKU
University of Michigan/Peking University
2009 Summer Undergraduate Research
Exchange in Chemical, Biological, and Life Sciences
2008-10 International NSF-REU SIte for Chemistry in China
CHEMISTRY POSITIONS OPEN TO STUDENTS
FROM AROUND THE US IN ADDITION TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN
BIOLOGICAL AND LIFE SCIENCES POSITIONS ONLY OPEN TO STUDENTS FROM THE UNIVERSITY
OF MICHIGAN
Program Dates: May 24 - Aug 7, 2009
Application deadline for 2009 is Friday, March
13, 2009.
The UM PKU program is being supported by
funds from the University of Michigan and the National Science Foundation.
Research projects are available in all subject areas.
In addition
to a research project, there will be other activities, including a two-week
"boot camp" orientation held in Beijing, and run by the UM-PKU
Joint Institute, featuring Chinese language instruction as well as sessions
and field trips on Chinese history and culture. A weekly series of sessions
will accompany the standard research program.
UM PKU Fellowship includes: $2500 stipend, housing,
and all travel.
For questions, contact one of the Program
Directors (see below).
In your application, you will need to provide a ranked
list of faculty members whose group you would like to join. Selecting a
faculty member under one program rather than the other will not influence
whether you are accepted, but it will give us an idea of your primary area
of scientific interest.
Research groups in Chemistry are available at Peking University (CHEMPKU)
and Tsinghua University (CHEMTHU).
Research groups in the Biological and Life Sciences are available at Peking
University (BIOPKU) and Tsinghua University (BIOTHU)
