Details

Apply for the University of Lausanne UNIL Summer Undergraduate Research (SUR) Programme in Switzerland. The SUR Programme runs for up to 8 weeks in July and August, hosting about 15 first university Bachelor degree students with both biological and medical studies backgrounds from around the world. Each participant will perform an individual research project in a different laboratory of the Faculty of Biology and Medicine. The programme welcomes students studying for a Bachelor degree in any field in the life sciences, as well as those pursuing medical studies.

The main aim of the programme is to attract outstanding motivated students from near and far for a research experience that will remain with them for their lifetimes. During the programme, much as most of your time will be spent in the host lab, each week you along with your fellow students will come together for shared academic activities, often with participants of the sister programme at the EPFL.

Programme activities may include introductory student research presentations, lectures from faculty members on research topics and their career paths, and career guidance workshops in academia and beyond. At the end of the summer, students present the results of their research on a poster during a joint UNIL/EPFL Symposium and write a final report. You will also enjoy many social activities, including a hike in the Alps, barbecues, swimming in Lac Léman, and visits to other cities during your stay in Switzerland.
