The Bridges Program at 香港六合彩资料 provides support to full-time underrepresented students who are studying science. Each summer, students from our three partner community colleges: Monroe Community College, Onondaga Community College, and Westchester Community College participate in a full-time, paid summer research experience at 香港六合彩资料 University. The students live in apartments on campus and receive a stipend ($5600 total pay for 8 weeks), along with tutoring, advising, workshops, and conference attendance. The goal of the Bridges Program is to help Bridges scholars transition from a 2-year community college to a 4-year institution. The application deadline is March 29, 2024 or until all research positions are filled. Please email bridges@binghamton.edu with any questions.
