Undergraduate Summer Research Internship (2026)

The Undergraduate Summer Research Internship is a 10-week paid research programme hosted in partnership between Fisk University and Meharry Medical College. Participants work with faculty mentors on computational and data-intensive research projects, including two weeks of training followed by eight weeks of team-based research. The programme includes field trips, virtual group sessions, and opportunities to engage with scientific subject-matter experts.

Paid $7,000 stipend, airfare coverage, housing, meals, training, faculty mentorship, field trips, and research experience on a team-based project.

Applicants must be currently enrolled in a science degree program and demonstrate strong interest in quantitative research. Preference will be given to rising juniors and seniors; programming and prior research experience are valuable but not required.
