Caltech Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships (SURF) program at Caltech provides undergraduate students with the opportunity to engage in research under the guidance of Caltech faculty. Students work on a research project, write a research proposal, and conduct research over a 10-week period during the summer. The program culminates in a presentation at a symposium where students present their research findings. SURF aims to enhance students' educational experience through hands-on research and to prepare them for graduate studies and research careers.
