Stanford Data Science Undergraduate Research Pathways (DSURP)

The Stanford Data Science Undergraduate Research Pathways program is an 8-week full-time research experience designed to provide students at institutions without access to research opportunities the chance to conduct a research project under the supervision of both a mentor and faculty member. This is an in-person experience held at Stanford from June 24 to August 16, 2024.

Details

  • The program is held during the Stanford summer quarter from June 24–August 16 (8 weeks).
  • Participants will receive a stipend of $6000, but the program is not otherwise able to provide housing support.
  • Available slots are limited and selection is competitive. Priority is given first to students from non-R1 universities, and also to those from backgrounds underrepresented in data science research.
  • The program is not open to Stanford students.

How to Apply

Applicants will need to provide the following by 11:59 pm PST on March 3, 2024:
