Tsinghua University Amgen Scholars Program intends to expand research possibilities for students who are dedicated to have a career in the Sciences. It is an 8-week residential summer internship program in China led by faculty members. It will provide interns a chance to work in a lab setting, gain experience in cutting-edge research, and gain knowledge about drug discovery and biotechnology. They will work in a faculty lab on one or more specialized research projects.

During this summer program for undergraduate students, a faculty member will be assigned as a mentor to each scholar. While working in the lab, the interns will be trained and assisted by a graduate student, post doctorate, or technician. As a lab member, the scholar will have a chance to take part in a number of academic events including weekly lab meetings, group discussions, presentation training, and lectures held throughout the campus.

Each Amgen Scholar in Asia will participate in a symposium which will be a part of this internship for international students to learn directly from scientists in academia and industry about their research findings. Students will have a great chance to network with other Amgen Scholars from across the world through this fully funded exchange program. There will be additional extracurricular activities planned, like networking events and exploration of Beijing and Chinese culture. Apply now to become a part of this international research internship before the deadline approaches.
