Undergraduate Research Training Initiative for Student Enhancement (U-RISE)
Mission
The U-RISE Program at Cal State Fullerton aims to recruit, retain, and prepare promising undergraduate students with various lived-experiences, students from socioeconomically-disadvantaged background, and students with physical disability or neurodiverse, to successfully pursue a career in Biomedical Science research.
Announcements
We recruit undergraduate students who are interested in Biomedical Research career (PhD or MD-PhD). If you are interested in applying to the program as part of the two-year cohort, we accept applications in early spring. If for example you have 1.5 years left instead of 2 years, you are encouraged to submit an application.
