UROP Riemen Summer Prize

Mark W. Riemen Summer Prize Competition

The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program announces the Mark W. Riemen Summer Research Prize Competition to support an undergraduate summer research project in the amount of $4,000 for salary and a $500 FROG (research supplies grant).

The Riemen Prize was established by family, classmates, and colleagues in memory of Mark W. Riemen (CAS '75), a distinguished research scientist. The competition is open to Chemistry and Biology majors in alternate years and Biochemistry & Molecular Biology majors every year.

For the Summer 2008 competition, undergraduates majoring in Chemistry or BMB are invited to submit a research proposal, in consultation with a faculty mentor, to the UROP Office no later than March 20, 2008.
