Welcome to the SUPER website!
SUPER (Summer Undergraduate Program for Experiential Research) is a 10-week program that provides summer research opportunities at the University of Texas at Austin. The program is available to rising Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors who are considering a career in life-science research.
SUPER encompasses broad research opportunities in Biochemistry, Cell and Molecular Biology, and Microbiology. In addition to research, SUPER Scholars will participate in social and academic activities that support interactivity, networking, career development, ethics, and many other topics. SUPER Scholars will benefit from direct interactions with current UT-Austin graduate students, post-docs, and faculty.
We are thrilled to be able to present this opportunity, and especially encourage students underrepresented in the sciences to apply.
Please review the application information and Frequently Asked Questions on our website to learn more. You may also contact our Graduate Program Administrator or Graduate Program Coordinator with any questions.
Best wishes, and we hope to see you this summer here on campus!

UPDATE: The SUPER program has been cancelled for the summer 2020 session due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Interested students are instead invited to reapply during the summer 2021 application period.
