A full-time, 10-week summer research internship for Stanford undergraduates to work on faculty-led design research projects across design and engineering domains. Participants work 35+ hours/week with faculty mentors, take a 1-unit research seminar, attend events, and present at the Design Research Fair. The program is intended to develop research skills, methods, evaluation, and technical communication in design-based research.

Base stipend ($8,500) plus potential needs-based supplement (up to $1,500); research mentorship, 1-unit spring research seminar, attendance at special events, and presentation at the Fall Design Research Fair.
