Cameron ZehrGrimm, a Biology major from Whitewater, is engaging in the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater’s Summer Undergraduate Research (SURF) program.

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship is a faculty-mentored summer research grant. Students must apply for the highly-competitive program, which includes a stipend and an expense budget for supplies, travel, or publication costs. Participating students are paired with a UW-Whitewater faculty mentor.

After participating in the summer program, students will present at UW-Whitewater’s Fall and Spring Undergraduate Research Days and at either the national Conference on Undergraduate Research or the Universities of Wisconsin Symposium.

Students who participate in undergraduate research – a staple of the Warhawk experience – are exposed to hands-on learning opportunities, relationship building and networking, presenting at state and national conferences, and being published in prestigious journals.
