Summer Research Programme
These awards support undergraduate students for a nine-week period over the summer break while they complete a small research project about heart health under the supervision of our Pūtahi Manawa researchers. Māori students can apply for our Kura Raumati programme and Pacific students for our Fatu Malosi programme.
The students get an idea of what it’s like to be a researcher, which may help them decide whether they want to pursue a research career or include research as part of their future work.
