2020 SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH PROGRAM
The 2020 Summer Undergraduate Research Program was entirely held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Nonetheless, our SURP scholars persevered through our 8-week program, learning how to conduct research from our world-renowned UCLA professors and publishing in our Summer Undergraduate Research Program Journal.
Take a look at what we did this summer!
