The Center for Injury Research and Prevention (CIRP) at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia Research Institute hosts the Injury Science Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program, a 10-week paid summer research internship opportunity for undergraduate students. CIRP is a leading multidisciplinary center engaged in collaborative cross-discipline research implementing real-world applications.

This opportunity provides underrepresented students with mentorship and hands-on research experience in the fields of engineering, behavioral science, education, population science, and statistics. Students will apply this scientific foundation to assist in developing evidence-based prevention products, programs, policies, and interventions.

With mentoring from a well-established team of highly trained pediatric researchers as well as peer mentors, Injury Science REU students will:

• conduct research to build the scientific foundation for injury interventions
• translate interventions into practical solutions
• evaluate the success of these solutions

Students with a GPA >3.0 with an interest in pursuing an advanced degree in their field of study (except Pre-Med) are encouraged to apply.
