OFFERING RESEARCH INTERNSHIP – MAX KADE Scholarship for Students on Bachelor- or Master level: Call 2016

/ September 30, 2015/ News, Students

The Max Kade Foundation (MKF, www.maxkadefoundation.org) supports an international research exchange between Vanderbilt and Leipzig Universities. Specifically, MKF provides funds of three‐four undergraduate students from each university to conduct a 10 week summer internship at the respective partner university. Travel costs up to $2000 and a weekly stipend of $400 are provided. They target rising junior and rising senior students at Vanderbilt University. To select the recipients of the stipend, they collect research project descriptions from around twenty core laboratories that support the collaboration between Vanderbilt and Leipzig Universities. Descriptions are provided by the graduate student or post‐doctoral mentor who will advise the undergraduate student. It is encouraged that the undergraduate student conducts research on the same or a related project in the laboratory of a collaborating investigator at their home institution during the academic year before or after their MKF internship.
