Alumni to Aggie Summer Research Award

The Alumni to Aggie Summer Research Award supports the CBS Dean’s Summer Undergraduate Research Program by providing summer stipends to students working in labs. This fund, created by several CBS alumni, wishes to serve students conducting research in chemistry, biology, biochemistry, molecular and cellular biology, and/or biomedical engineering. Appropriate expenses may include, but are not limited to, student awards, research supplies, and travel expenses. This fund places emphasis on supporting underrepresented populations in biological sciences.
