Caltech is excited to announce two summer research opportunities available to
continuing undergraduate students. Questions about these programs can be
directed to Carol Casey at casey@caltech.edu or (626) 395-2887.
MURF Undergraduate Research Fellowships
The MURF program aims to increase the participation of underrepresented
students (such as African American, Hispanic, and Native American, females
who are underrepresented in their discipline, and first-generation college
students) in science and engineering Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. programs and to make
Caltech's programs more visible to students not traditionally exposed to
Caltech.
Eligibility: Students must be current sophomores through non-graduating
seniors and must be U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents. A minimum GPA
of 3.0 is required.
Support: MURF students will receive a $6000 award for the ten-week program.
Additional housing and travel support may be provided.
Application: Online applications are due January 13, 2010.

Amgen Scholars Program
Caltech's Amgen Scholars Program is geared towards students in biology,
chemistry, and biotechnology fields. Some of these fields include biology,
biochemistry, bioengineering, chemical and biomolecular engineering, and
chemistry.
Eligibility: Students must be current sophomores through non-graduating
seniors, must be attending a four-year university, and must be U.S. citizens
or U.S. permanent residents. A minimum GPA of 3.2 is required.
Support: Amgen Scholars will receive a $5500 award, round-trip air
transportation, a generous housing allowance, and a food allowance.

Welcome!
This is the official blog for SUB which will serve as the center of communication for SUB members and as a place of centralized information for the entire undergraduate biology community. The blog will highlight all of the great opportunities available to bio students, including seminars, internship opportunities, relevant UCSB Career Services events, undergraduate research, and job opportunities. We will try to promote a well-informed undergraduate population by discussing new and exciting research, potential career paths, and ways in which to maximize your experience as a biologist at UCSB. Additionally, we hope that you, the SUB members, will use this blog to express your needs and desires regarding the services that SUB will provide.
Thank you for your interest in SUB - we're here to serve you!
