2023 SURE Participants

More than 40 Carthage students have been selected to conduct research with faculty this summer as part of the 2023 Summer Undergraduate Research Experience.

SURE has been a hallmark of the Carthage experience since the mid-1990s. The undergraduate research initiative first began in the natural sciences but now includes all academic disciplines at Carthage. Each summer, between 20 和 50 students are chosen to participate.

Selected students spend 10 weeks on campus researching full-time with a faculty mentor. Students receive a stipend, on-campus housing, a meal plan, 和 a research budget.
