為向我校優秀學生提供更多的國際交流機會,我校于2014年起與加利福尼亞大學洛杉磯分校(UCLA)開展本科生暑期項目(CSST)。有關項目詳細內容請見《UCLA本科生暑期項目介紹》。
一、 項目簡介
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
The CSST Summer Program is a 10-week intensive research training and PhD recruitment program. Each student will be enrolled in 12 units of UCLA courses, conduct research under the guidance of a UCLA faculty mentor, and participate in required CSST activities including professional development and networking events. UCLA PhD programs will preview potential PhD applicants’ research performance and begin early recruitment for the next year’s admission cycle.
About 95% of CSST participants came from biomedical & life sciences, physical Science, and engineering majors. But we also welcome students from non-STEM majors such as geology, sociology, political science, and so forth . (STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics.)
The specific goals of the CSST Summer Program are to:
§ Develop students’ research career potentials
§ Foster cross-disciplinary interaction and research
§ Develop a community of CSST colleagues
§ Identify and recruit top students to UCLA PhD programs
