Dr. Djire’s 10-week DJIRE Summer Research and Education Program provides undergraduate students from U.S. and international universities with immersive, hands-on research experience. The program recruits students from all academic backgrounds, with a dedicated focus on underrepresented minority (URM) students, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), and international institutions through the Halliburton Summer Internship program. Participants engage in mentored research while also gaining structured opportunities to network with faculty across the department, connecting with professors and research groups aligned with their scientific interests.
