Son got accepted into both UCSB SRA track and UMass Amherst Research Intensive lab. He needs to decide which one to attend. SRA is a 5-week program where students can work on a research topic that they choose (within a track), and Research Intensive lab is 6 weeks and students work in the research lab on existing research under the guidance of a college student I think.
Does anyone have insights/experience with these two programs, and can help us make a decision between these two?
