3rd Annual Summer Workshop in Cognitive and Brain Sciences.

Are you an undergraduate interested in learning more about cognitive and brain sciences? If so, the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of Delaware is holding its 3rd Annual Summer Workshop in Cognitive and Brain Sciences. This program, from June 10th-21th, 2019, is an intensive workshop for undergraduates who are interested in cognitive research. Participants will engage in immersive training in cognitive and brain sciences, which includes both formal coursework, interactive teaching, and hands-on experience with functional neuroimaging, non-invasive brain stimulation, cognitive neuropsychological research, and more. This program is open to permanent residents and citizens of the United States.

 

Thanks to funding from the National Science Foundation, travel, tuition, room and board will be provided for the entire two-week program for students attending college/university in EPSCoR jurisdictions (Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, and Wyoming, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.) We strongly encourage students from these jurisdictions to attend. Furthermore, selected workshop attendees will have the opportunity to engage in cognitive neuroscience research over the entire summer at the University of Delaware. Those students will be provided with a stipend, in addition to workshop expenses.

 

We encourage all undergraduates with a strong interest in the cognitive and brain sciences to apply. We also encourage students from underrepresented backgrounds to apply. Applications are due April 1st. For more information, please go to https://www.psych.udel.edu/brainworkshop.
