"The Graduate College Educational Equity Programs Office is accepting applications from students enrolled in doctoral programs who are interested in serving as a Research Team Leader for the 2010 Summer Research Opportunities Program.
The Summer Research Opportunities Program is designed to provide students from populations underrepresented in graduate study at Illinois with an nine to ten week summer research experience under the guidance of an Illinois faculty member. Undergraduate participants in the program are expected to produce a research proposal, research paper, poster, and oral presentation of their research over the summer. As an SROP participant, students will interact with faculty, administrators, staff, other students in the program, and their Research Team Leader. The Illinois SROP is a graduate school preparatory program, which supports the application, enrollment, and successful completion of graduate school for its participants.
The role of the Research Team Leader is to aid in creating a summer experience for the SROP participant that will provide them with a more thorough understanding of the graduate school experience. The Research Team Leader will support the students’ full participation in the SROP by assisting participants in meeting the program’s objectives. The Research Team Leader will work closely with SROP participants, Faculty Mentors, SROP staff, fellow Research Team Leaders, and other administrators affiliated with the SROP.
For more information about the SROP Research Team Leader position, you may view the position announcement found on the Graduate College Assistantship Clearinghouse site at: http://www.grad.uiuc.edu/clearinghouse/ or contact the Educational Equity Programs Office to receive a paper application and formal position description.
