We’re excited to announce that the GS Research Initiative for Summer Exploration (RISE) Program application for Summer 2026 will open on Monday, March 2, 2026. The application deadline is April 1, 2026.
The RISE Program offers GS students a valuable opportunity to engage in faculty-mentored undergraduate research with financial support over the summer. This program is designed to deepen your academic interests, strengthen critical thinking skills, and prepare you for graduate study or research-focused careers.
