schoolarships - Lehigh University Department of Physics Spring 2014. We are still digging out from all the snow!!! Making up classes lost to the weather keeps us very busy. Nevertheless, the year got off to an excellent start. Our REU NSF grant was renewed for another five years. schoolarships - Fermilab SIST: Contact Didier worked on the mechanical integrity of the NOvA Far Detector. He used a graphical program called Synoptic to display strain and distance readings within this detector. These displays provide a quick and convenient way of reading out these data in the control room of NOvA. -- Didier Muvandimwe, SIST 2013 more
schoolarships - Summer 2012 Cyclotron Institute REU Program Summer 2012 Program The Texas A&M Cyclotron Institute, in conjunction with the National Science Foundation, is serving as a Research Experiences for Undergraduates site during the summer of 2012. This REU site focuses on research in nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry. Students will have the opportunity to work closely with internationally renowned scientists at a major university-based nuclear facility.

(See "Application Information" on the sidebar.) Introduction The Department of Physics has hosted an NSF-funded Research Experiences for Undergraduates site since 2004. schoolarships - Experimental Particle Physics ​Edward C. Blucher Ph.D., Cornell, 1988. schoolarships - Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Each summer the Department of Physics at Purdue runs a National Science Foundation funded Research Experience for Undergraduates program. This year's 10 week program runs from May 27, 2014 until August 1, 2014. Applications will be accepted until all position are filled. However, since we begin reviewing applications in early February, please apply before February 10 for full consideration. Allowances may be made for students whose Summer Break begins after this start date.
schoolarships - SPS Internships Mather Policy Internships Nobel Laureate Supports Congressional Internships in Partnership with SPS John C. Mather, who shared the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics for his precise measurements of the primordial heat radiation of the Big Bang, has turned his sights to a more Earthly ambition. He has spent part of his prize money to bring more physics and physicists into government. The John and Jane Mather Foundation for Science and the Arts and the American Institute of Physics (AIP) have created the Mather Policy Intern Program, an endowed program that sends two undergraduate physics majors to Washington, DC, each summer where they will spend their break working in Congress or in other government offices where policy is formulated.
schoolarships - Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Welcome to the Georgetown REU Site in Materials Physics! Undergraduate students are invited to apply for a 10-week summer research program to engage in a focused research project in materials physics, working closely with a faculty mentor and other researchers. Taking advantage of Georgetown's location in the nation's capital, this REU program will also feature a science-and-society component to encourage students to explore the connection between scientific research and the world outside the laboratory. In addition, REU participants will join other physics and chemistry undergraduates in a variety of professional development workshops and social and networking activities. This program is funded by the National Science Foundation and Georgetown University.
schoolarships - Lehigh University Department of Physics NSF-Supported "Research Experiences for Undergraduates" (REU) Summer Program for Undergraduate Physics Majors Summer 2014 Apply online! The deadline for applications is March 7, 2014. schoolarships - REU - Research Experience for Undergraduates // Department of Physics // University of Notre Dame Research Experience for Undergraduates 2014 (ND REU) The University of Notre Dame's Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program, which celebrated 25 years in 2011, provides opportunities for undergraduate physics majors to experience hands-on participation in research in many areas of physics. Students are granted stipends, university housing, and assistance with travel and food expenses. Basically, this means that if you are a rising junior or senior, you can come to Notre Dame and work with a professor for ten weeks. You will either help this professor with his or her work, or work on an experiment of your own. The REU program gives you valuable research experience, to help you decide if physics research is right for you.
schoolarships - APS Scholarship for Underrepresented Minorities The APS Minority Scholarship helps increase the number of under-represented minorities obtaining degrees in physics. It provides funding and mentoring to minority physics students, helping them enhance their education and successfully prepare for a variety of careers. History The Scholarship was started in 1980. The program, through the generosity of corporate and individual donors, has graduated students who have received their Ph.D.s in physics and are now working as physics faculty members in universities, as well as research scientists at corporations and national labs. Some past scholars have also become high school physics teachers. Scholar Selection Each year, the APS Committee on Minorities in Physics (COM) acts as the selection committee for this scholarship which attracts many excellent applicants.
