Dear Colleagues,

As you may know, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) is a 
participant in a summer research program in science and biotechnology – the 
Amgen-UROP Scholars Program. UROP is MIT’s Undergraduate Research Opportunities 
Program. The mission of the Amgen-UROP Scholars Program is to provide students 
with a strong science research experience that may be pivotal in their 
undergraduate career, cultivate a passion for science, encourage the pursuit of 
graduate studies in the sciences, and stimulate interest in research and 
scientific careers.

During the summer 2013 program, MIT hosted 16 visiting scholars who engaged in 
research under the supervision of MIT’s foremost faculty and leading 
researchers. In addition to the visiting scholars, nine MIT undergraduates 
participated in the program. Over the past seven summers, almost 200 students 
have conducted research through this program.

We are soliciting applications for visiting students to engage in research as 
part of the summer 2014 Amgen-UROP Scholars Program. I request your assistance 
in distributing this announcement to your faculty and encouraging young 
scholars on your campus to submit an application. While spending a summer in 
Boston and gaining research experience, your students will be paid a stipend; 
room, board and transportation to and from Boston will also be covered by their 
appointment. All students will live on-campus in one of our undergraduate 
residences. This community of young scholars will share in the excitement of 
research by participating in a faculty-led seminar series, workshops, a poster 
session and a mid-summer symposium at UCLA (travel, room and board are covered).

MIT is delighted to invite undergraduate students from other colleges and 
universities to join our research enterprise. We value the knowledge, 
experience and enthusiasm these young scholars will bring to our campus and 
appreciate this opportunity to build a relationship with your faculty and 
campus.

I have attached a brief description of the Amgen-UROP Scholars Program. The URL 
listed on the document will direct interested faculty and students to a website 
with additional details, application materials and contact information.

Thank you for sharing this information with your faculty and students. We look 
forward to receiving applications from your students.

Sincerely yours,

Julie B. Norman
Senior Associate Dean For Undergraduate Education
Director, Office of Undergraduate Advising and  Academic Programming
