We are always looking at ways to improve and strengthen the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) as an integral platform for biomedical undergraduate student internships and to increase the number of student placements that can be offered each round.
We have evaluated the current UROP placement model with researchers and in consultation with them, we propose that along with the current UROP placement model, research institutions/supervisors can now choose a more "compressed" work placement.
Effective from 2024 round 2 UROP students working options include:
Summer placements:
Winter placements:
The working schedules will be discussed and agreed upon prior to placement confirmation. At the time of applying, both the supervisors and the students have the option to select which working model they are to be considered for.
