Student Research Funding
Undergraduate Summer Research Fund
To enhance the undergraduate educational experience at Harvard through the support of environmental research, the Center established an Undergraduate Summer Research Fund in 2002. The Fund is a competitive summer research grant program for Harvard undergraduates created to support student research projects related to the environment. The grants are intended to support research related to the environment, with a preference given to rising seniors seeking funds for senior honors thesis research. Award amounts are normally between $500-$2,500.
The most recent round of funding was awarded in May 2008. The list of students who received undergraduate research awards is here.

Undergraduate Summer Research Assistantships
The Center encourages undergraduate students to participate in summer research with Harvard faculty by providing funding for up to 10 weeks of an undergraduate research assistant position at a competitive hourly wage. Each spring, we collect a wide variety of research assistant opportunities from the Center's Faculty Associates and post them here on our web site. To apply, students should identify faculty members whose work is of interest to them and contact them directly to determine if their background is appropriate for a particular project. Positions are awarded each year prior to the end of Spring semester.
