  1. Dear Future and Current Undergraduate Researchers,
  2.  
  3.  
  4.  
  5. Many congratulations on surviving the semester!! Extra congratulations if it was your first at Cal. Now comes a well-earned rest. Except….there are a couple of deadlines *this* week: the Jacobs Institute Innovation Catalysts (12/20), and Linguistics Research Apprenticeship Program (12/22/17). Also, take a look at what’s coming up in January, and mark your calendar for those workshops and info sessions that can help you get ready. December-January is also a great time to study the web site to see which spring opportunities are the best fit for you, and to formulate your plan of action.
  6.  
  7.  
  8.  
  9. There are 53 on-campus research programs in all, but you can use filters to find out which one’s right for you. On the “search databases” page of http://research.berkeley.edu, choose “research programs”, filter by “Programs for Berkeley students at Berkeley”, and then you can filter further by deadline or six other searches (disciplinary division, citizenship status, GPA requirement, etc.). Once you’ve found ones you’re eligible for, read the program web sites carefully, come to info sessions (see below listings for upcoming info sessions and keep an eye on the always-evolving undergraduate research calendar), and, for smaller programs, meet with the program staff to get started!
  10.  
  11.  
  12.  
  13. Don’t forget to check out the off-campus programs, too! Go to the same page, but choose “Programs for Berkeley Students Away from Berkeley”, and many links will come up that are databases. Getting off-campus experience can give you a leg up on graduate admissions at those U’s or can be a pipeline to great on-campus opportunities. Happy rest and exploration to all of you!

Each student will be placed with a faculty mentor to work on a particular research project for approximately 10 weeks (starting late May or early June). In addition, students will participate in educational sessions on bioethics research methods and lunch meetings with faculty. Students also will have the opportunity to shadow physicians, clinical ethics consultations, and other professionals depending on areas of interest.
  334.  
  335. Interested applicants should apply to job posting 87872BR: Bioethics Intern on the Mayo Clinic jobs website (http://www.mayoclinic.org/jobs) by Jan. 12, 2018.

The Mayo Clinic Biomedical Ethics Program seeks applicants for a one-year post-baccalaureate research experience in empirical bioethics research, as part of the Mayo Clinic Graduate Research Employment Program (GREP). Students will participate in educational activities and conduct bioethics research in a mentored environment. GREP is designed for individuals who have completed a bachelor’s degree and plan to attend graduate school or medical school. Eligible candidates must have received their bachelor’s degree before the position starts. GREP students are eligible to take graduate-level courses through the Mayo Graduate School. The position is ideal for students interested in a “gap year” between their undergraduate and graduate degree programs. Post-baccalaureate research fellows will be selected for the 2018-2019 academic year. The position may be extended beyond one year at the discretion of the supervisor but will not exceed a total of two years.
