Through a competitive application process, the Transportation Undergraduate Research Fellowship (TURF) program is a unique eight-week summer fellowship for undergraduates to get experience in transportation research. Hosted at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon, a hub of transportation innovation and expertise, fellows will work on research projects under the guidance of a research mentor. What can TURF Fellows expect from the program?

• Firsthand exposure to the research process;
• A chance to practice collecting & analyzing data, and other useful tasks;
• A cohort experience with other TURF fellows;
• Experience another university campus in an urban setting with robust multimodal network;
• The opportunity to spend the summer in beautiful Portland, Oregon!

At the end of the program, the students will write a final written reflection describing their research findings and experience of the program.
