King Center Summer Undergraduate Full-Time Research Assistant Program
Get fieldwork experience in global development across disciplines. Spend up to 12 weeks in a low- or middle-income country conducting research for a Stanford faculty member or affiliate in collaboration with a community partner.
The Summer Undergraduate Full-time Research Assistant Program offers opportunities for fieldwork and research experience to Stanford undergraduates interested in global poverty and development across disciplines.
When Stanford University travel policies allow, selected students spend up to 12 weeks in a low- or middle-income country conducting full-time research for a King Center Faculty Affiliate. Each research assistant receives a stipend that covers most associated costs including travel, lodging, financial aid and incidental expenses.
