Summer Student Research Program

The Faculty of Medicine Summer Student Research Program (FoM SSRP) provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to explore their interest in health research by undertaking a summer project supervised by a Faculty of Medicine researcher.

FoM SSRP Application packages must be submitted by a student-supervisor team as one application. The application contains fields to provide information on the student, supervisor and project. It can be filled out by the student, the supervisor, another study team member (e.g. research assistant) or a combination of people. Click the buttons below to understand the process from the student or supervisor perspective.
