The Student Research Internship Program (SRIP) offers a volunteer, non-credit course administered by departments within UCI Health and UC Irvine School of Medicine. This is an opportunity to experience research as an intern under the direct supervision of an eligible faculty member in the School of Medicine.  

Students have the opportunity to participate and gain hands-on experience in biomedical research settings. We welcome all students interested in this opportunity and look forward to having you in our labs during the fall, spring, winter and summer quarters.

Program Length
