\nThe Genomics and Geobiology Undergraduate Research Experience (GGURE) is a research internship program for USC sophomores, juniors, and seniors majoring in the life sciences, earth and marine sciences, computational sciences, and engineering. There is both a part-time program during the academic year and a full-time program over 10 weeks during the summer break at the University of Southern California. The GGURE program offers USC undergraduates the opportunity to participate actively in a research group, with either an experimental or computational focus, and perform original research under the direct supervision of a faculty mentor.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>

GGURE was originally funded by the National Institutes of Health and was called the Genomics Research Experience for Undergraduates (GREU) program. It was a program of the Center for Excellence in Genome Science (CEGS) and focused on students from underrepresented backgrounds. It is currently funded by C-DEBI, a National Science Foundation funded Science and Technology Center, with assistance from USC\u2019s Office of the Provost.<\/p>\n
