SISRM’s RA program offers UChicago undergraduates the opportunity to reinforce and extend their new research skills through paid positions working on faculty research projects. RAs are matched with faculty across the social sciences based on academic goals and interests as well as planned summer coursework. RA positions extend from June through August. The RA stipend is $4,000 for roughly 160 hours of work. New in 2020, SISRM has established a competitive pool of funding to extend some RA positions into the academic year.
Who is eligible?
- Rising second-, third-, and fourth-year UChicago students
- Fourth-year UChicago students who will graduate and pursue a UChicago MA program in the next academic year
- Students-at-large will be considered on a case-by-case basis
