Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF)

The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship provides a wide variety of summer research opportunities for undergraduate students interested in careers in medicine or biomedical research. Participants in this program work in an active research laboratory under the guidance of a faculty member. The program is deliberately flexible, so that students may combine work with other educational experiences. The goal of the program is to expose students to the challenges, excitement and satisfaction of research.

For more than 25 years, this rigorous six-week program has provided an intensive and realistic introduction to the first-year curriculum at OU-HCOM. In addition to traditional medical school curricula taught by medical college faculty, graduate students and upper-class medical students, the program focuses on case-based problem solving and small-group/team work. You’ll also benefit from special lectures, clinical experiences, and study and time management skill sessions in addition to workshops on cultural competency and research methods.
