We are pleased to announce the 2017 edition of undergraduate summer research internships, the Carleton University Research Opportunity (CUROP). These are now advertised and explained on the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) website: http://carleton.ca/fass/research/awards/carleton-university-research-opportunity-curop/

As the website specifies, FASS will be offering 15 research internships worth $7,500 each.  As was the case last year,  students are expected to devise a research project and find a full-time faculty member willing to supervise them.  Please note that students who apply to assist a faculty member with the faculty member’s research will not be considered eligible. The internships are open to all undergraduates, regardless of year standing.  Preference, however, will be given to students with a CGPA of 10.0 or higher.   Applications are due on April 10th.

Please note that students must apply through the Discovery Centre’s website, which contains precise instructions about the application process and the application itself.  FASS applications will be adjudicated by the Office of the Dean, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (ODFASS).  Students will be directed to the CUROP website from the FASS website.
