CU Boulder is a member of the Leadership Alliance, a consortium of universities offering summer research programs. Apply for SMART through its Summer Research Early Identification Program (SR-EIP). You can apply to three Leadership Alliance summer programs with one application. CU Boulder faculty members choose SMART students from the pool of applicants who select University of Colorado Boulder.
Please go to the Leadership Alliance SR-EIP website for the application and more information.
For future SMART applicants, please see sample research project abstracts to understand the sort of work you'll be working on during the program. How these research projects align with your own academic interests in a Statement of Purpose can only strengthen your application.
