  • 2027 Summer Undergraduate Research Program

    The SURP is an intensive, nine-week internship that provides research experience and mentorship for undergraduate students who are interested in biomedical research.

  • We recommend that you review the application for the SURP and prepare materials in advance before you begin filling in this web application. 

     

    We strongly discourage the use of AI tools to write your responses. AI-generated answers sound remarkably similar to those of other applicants using the same tools, which prevents you from standing out. Sharing your thoughts in your own authentic voice gives you the best chance to make a lasting impression during the review process. Generative AI should not be used to write your responses on this application. 

    If you need to use AI tools as part of a reasonable accommodation for a disability, or require other disability accommodations to complete this application, please contact surp@fredhutch.org before you submit so we can discuss your options.

    • Voluntary Self-Identification of Veteran Status 

    • Voluntary Self-Identification of Veteran Status

      Fred Hutch is a government contractor subject to the Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended by the Job for Veterans Act 2002, 38 U.S.C. 4212 (VEVRAA), which requires government contractors to take affirmative action to employ and advance in the employment of (1) disabled veterans; (2) recently separated veterans; (3) active duty wartime or campaign badge veterans; and (4) Armed Forces service medal veterans. These classifications are defined as follows:


      ● Disabled Veteran includes any veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who: (a) is entitled to compensation, or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation under laws administered by the Secretary of Veteran Affairs, or (b) was discharged or released from active duty because of service-connected disability.


      ● Recently Separated Veteran includes any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran’s discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service.


      ● Active Duty Wartime or Campaign Badge Veteran includes any veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service in a war, campaign or expedition in which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.


      ● Armed Forces Service Medal Veteran includes any veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United State military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.


      As a Government contractor subject to VEVRAA, we are required to submit a report to the United States Department of Labor each year identifying the number of our applicants belonging to these categories. We request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of our outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA.

    • Protected veterans may have additional rightsunder USERRA – the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act. In particular, if you were absent from employment in order to perform service in the uniformed service, you may be entitled to be reemployed by your employer in the position you would have obtained with reasonable certainty if not for the absence due to service. For more information, call the U.S. Department of Labor’s Veterans Employment and Training Service (VETS), toll-free, at 1-866-4-USA-DOL.
