Undergraduate Research

CCIs actively integrate research, innovation, education, broadening participation, and informal science communication. In that regard, CCIs provide unique research experiences for undergraduates in which students are immersed in collaborative research environments throughout the USA. Applicants can choose from a range of research topics and institutions where to conduct their summer research.
