Funds for Undergraduate Research Internships

 

The Stanford Archaeology Center, in conjunction with the Vice Provost for Undergraduate Education, will fund up to five quarter-long undergraduate internships per academic year. The goal of this program is to provide opportunity for undergraduate students to work closely with faculty members on different aspects of their research.

Each SAC faculty can apply for up to two quarters of funding per year. The funds can then be used to hire two part-time student interns in one quarter, or one part-time student intern for two quarters.  Student interns work a maximum of 10 hours per week receiving up to $1500 per quarter.
