Students from NYU in New York and NYU Shanghai who wish to build their research experience during a semester abroad may apply for competitive Undergraduate Research Assistantships for fall, spring, or both semesters.
The assistantship creates a platform for visiting students to contribute to an ongoing research project under the supervision of an NYUAD faculty member, who will serve as a mentor, collaborator, and role model. Additionally, students will have access to state-of-the-art research facilities on campus. Previous student assistantship work has been varied and included laboratory sample preparation and field experiments, experimental data analysis, collecting original data, analyzing quantitative data, writing literature reviews or research reports, and filming videos to assist with research outreach and communication.
Positions
The research assistantship positions span a number of disciplines within the Arts and Humanities, Engineering, Science, and Social Sciences. Please see below for available positions. Students may apply for up to three positions but must submit a separate form for each application.
