About the Studio Lab for Undergraduates
Studio Lab was officially launched in 2020 to provide top-notch hands-on experiential training for undergraduate students.ÌýWe admit undergraduates as Studio Lab scholars who are matched with a research mentor and paid to work as research assistants. We also social events and professional training sessions.
