$16.00* for post year 1 students
$16.90* for post year 2 students

Students are responsible for contacting individual scientists directly whose research may be of interest to see if they are willing to supervise a student and to discuss potential projects.

Students are advised to send their resumes, cover letters and transcripts to scientists they are interested in working with.

Once both student and supervisor agree on a summer studentship, they will work together to complete HR new hire documentation. Supervisors are then responsible for submitting a Hurvitz Brain Sciences summer student application.
