SeattleStatGROWS offers a unique opportunity for undergraduates to gain paid, mentored research experience in statistics and data science within a leading biomedical research institution, with a strong focus on supporting students from underrepresented backgrounds.
The SeattleStatGROWS program at Fred Hutch is an 8-week paid summer research internship designed for undergraduate students interested in statistics and data science research. Participants are paired with a mentor to complete projects in these fields, gaining hands-on experience in biomedical data science. The program emphasizes intensive R programming training and statistical foundations, alongside professional development workshops covering topics like graduate school applications, scientific writing, and resume review. Students also engage in scientific talks and social activities, fostering a supportive community and providing opportunities to network with researchers and faculty. The program aims to increase awareness and interest in careers in statistics and data science research, particularly for students from backgrounds underrepresented in biomedical science.
The program is full-time (5 days/week) with some flexibility. In-person instructions and events are scheduled on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday for weeks 2 through 8 at the Fred Hutch campus. The first week is in-person every day, while Tuesday and Friday are open for students to work on research projects, attend team meetings, learn R, and participate in professional development.
This program is ideal for undergraduate students, particularly those from disadvantaged backgrounds or groups underrepresented in health sciences, who are interested in exploring careers in statistics, biostatistics, informatics, or data science within biomedical research.
