[SURF2012] Summer Internship Opportunities for Undergraduates

If you are interested, talk to Dr. Kolvoord.

Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology May 24 - August 9, 2012

Website for eligibility and application requirements - http://www.nist.gov/surfgaithersburg/

Deadline for applications: 5 p.m. EST February 15, 2012

Setting a Course Toward a Career in Science or Engineering?
Curious about physics, electronics, manufacturing, chemistry, materials science, or structural engineering? Intrigued by nanotechnology, fire research, information technology, or robotics? Tickled by biotechnology or biometrics? Have an intellectual fancy for superconductors or, perhaps, semiconductors? Here's your chance to satisfy that curiosity.
Spend part of your summer working elbow to elbow with researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), one of the world's leading research organizations and home to three Nobel Prize winners. Gain valuable hands-on experience, work with cutting-edge technology, meet peers from across the nation (from San Francisco to Puerto Rico and from New York to New Mexico), sample the Washington, DC (or Boulder, CO) area. And, no kidding, get paid ($5500) while you're learning. Come be a part of the the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship program (SURF) at NIST.

SURF students work at NIST for 11 weeks, contributing to an ongoing research project under the guidance of a NIST scientist or engineer from one of the Institute's major laboratories (Physical Measurements, Engineering, Material Measurements, Information Technology, Neutron Research, and Nanoscale Science). In addition to your own personal project, you'll have a chance to tour labs, and be exposed to a weekly lecture series on diverse research projects. Abstracts from this past summer's projects are contained in our SURF Colloquium document (http://www.nist.gov/surfgaithersburg/upload/SURFPromoBook2012.pdf).
This will give you an idea on how diverse the SURF projects are.

SURF is a competitive program. Applications are ranked and reviewed.
About 130 fellowships are awarded each year for the Gaithersburg, MD program and another 22 fellowship are awarded for the Boulder, CO program. NOTE: FYI - Each NIST site has its own application process so if you are interested in projects on both sites, make sure to submit two applications..

For more information and application information, go to the SURF website
- www.nist.gov/surfgaithersburg. Still not sure, watch the SURF video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wMFMqMMGGrg. E-mail us with any questions at NIST_SURF_program@nist.gov.

About the NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC)
The NASA Langley Research Center is an “ecosystem” for innovation, problem solving, and creativity. Our researchers are internationally-renowned investigators and problem solvers. Located in Hampton, Virginia (near Virginia Beach and Williamsburg and 3 hours south of Washington, DC), NASA LaRC is one of the country’s oldest civilian research laboratories. Since 1917, LaRC engineers and scientists have undertaken award-winning research and development efforts to pioneer (1) the future of flight (including entry, descent, and landing) in all atmospheres; (2) the characterization of all atmospheres; (3) space exploration systems and technology; and (4) structural materials concepts, analysis, and integration. Our engineers hold multiple degrees in a variety of disciplines (e.g., aeronautical, aerospace, bio and biomechanical, ceramics and materials, chemical, computer, electrical, electronics, environmental, mechanical, structural, and systems). Our scientists hold degrees in a variety of disciplines including chemistry, computer science, Earth and space science, mathematics, modeling and simulation, psychology, and physics.

Langley researchers are also engaged in a number of innovative challenges including atomistic materials; Earth systems science; affordable, safe, and sustainable space exploration; and “green aviation”. Our researchers are members and fellows of some of the most prestigious national and international professional and technical societies. About 30 percent of our researchers hold PhDs. Awarded annually since 1911 for the greatest achievement in American aviation, the Collier Trophy (named for Robert J. Collier, a prominent publisher, patriot, sportsman and aviator) has been presented to the NASA Langley Research Center five times.
