What the Internship Can Do For Undergraduates

In order to prepare participants to obtain advanced degrees, the internship includes:

  • six weeks of research experience under the direction of faculty mentors
  • Course credit
  • GRE prep classes
  • Workshops about applying to and succeeding in graduate school

A stipend, along with travel and housing, are also provided by the Mizzou Graduate School.

For complete information about mentor and intern responsibilities, activities and money matters, download the Emerge Summer Research Internship Handbook (PDF). Note: This handbook will be given to you at orientation and is only on this site for your reference. All information is subject to change.

Note: Before 2007, the Emerge Summer Research Internship program was made up of two programs, called LS-MoAMP (for STEM students), and the Summer Pre-Graduate Research Experience for Students in the Humanities.
