Yes, summer is likely the longest duration break in the calendar for most schools in the US. Note that research is a lot different than other schooling - you're largely working on your own, rather than to a schedule, but that also means you will likely fall behind in your research progress relative to your peers if you actually take the entire summer off each year, unless you can work while traveling. | |
