Announcing the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance Undergraduate Research Program
We are excited to announce the launch of the Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance Undergraduate Research Program.
This is an opportunity open to all Stanford undergraduate students to explore the field of human performance through a research experience. Through the program, students will:
- Participate in the course “Design Thinking for Research in Human Performance” (Spring, no prerequisites) to learn about the field of human performance and the research process, to engage with expert faculty, and write a proposal for summer research.
- Carry out their proposed research with the mentorship and guidance of Wu Tsai Human Performance Alliance mentors as part of a 10-week fellowship in the summer.
- Join a diverse community of leaders, researchers, and trainees who are passionate about improving human performance and supporting others in entering this field.
All Stanford undergraduate students are welcome to apply. Students who do not have previous research experience or are from underrepresented groups are particularly encouraged to apply.
