Student Summer Research Awards (SSRA) 

The SSRA programme is an undergraduate research initiative to support and showcase undergraduate research in the UCD School of Medicine. SSRA is a five-credit, eight-week elective module, which provides an ideal opportunity for undergraduate students to undertake a supervised research project.

A long-established feature of our undergraduate programmes, clinical and research electives enable students to develop their knowledge and understanding of key issues and themes relevant to their study of Medicine, and the opportunity to publish a peer-reviewed article.
