The Summer Multicultural Advanced Research Training (SMART) Program brings undergraduate students to the UNT Health Science Center campus to participate in a 10-week biomedical sciences project. Participants become familiar with the varied disciplines and methodology used in biomedical research.

SMART is a program for multicultural students made possible in part by the National Institutes of Health and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. The NIH has designated African Americans, Native Americans, Mexican Americans and Mainland Puerto Ricans as underrepresented populations in the sciences. However, through additional funding provided by our corporate partners, UNT Health Science Center invites applications from all interested students.

Eligibility: 
Students completing freshman year and sophomore students. 3.0 minimum cumulative grade point average. U. S. Citizen or permanent residency. Major in biology, biochemistry, chemistry or other life science. Intention of pursuing education beyond the bachelor’s level.
Duration: 
10 weeks
Deadline: 
Mid March
