The Rutgers Program in Perceptual Science is accepting applications for research experiences for undergraduates.

Review of applications will begin Feb 18, 2014 and will continue until all our positions are filled.



Applicants should be undergraduates with a major in Computer Science, Cognitive Science, Psychology, Information Science or a closely related field. They should be current juniors (graduating in 2015), although first and second year undergraduates with exceptionally strong backgrounds will also be considered. Due to funding agency rules, only U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents who are enrolled in an undergraduate program now through fall 2014 or later are eligible for this program. Women, minorities, and students with disabilities are encouraged to apply.
