Are you looking for a meaningful way to engage undergraduate students in discipline-specific research projects? Then apply for the summer 2026 I-CUREUS program.

I-CUREUS gives students the chance to gain hands-on experience and contribute to ongoing work in their field, building research skills and enhancing their resume along the way.

For the summer 2026 call, Teaching and Learning Services (TLS) will be able to fund approximately 50 I-CUREUS projects.

To encourage and support undergraduate research opportunities in FASS, FPGA and Sprott, TLS will fully fund I-CUREUS projects for faculty members who do not have research funding. Normally funding for an I-CUREUS project is split between TLS and the faculty supervisor. This requirement has meant that FASS, FPGA and Sprott undergraduate research opportunities have been fewer compared to colleagues in FED and the Faculty of Science.

Funding for successful applications from FED and the Faculty of Science this summer will remain split between TLS and the faculty supervisor.

Applications are due Tuesday, March 31. Learn more and apply here.
