Summer Undergraduate Research Experience Program
...designed just for you.
The Summer Undergraduate Research Experience Program at the Center for
Materials Research offers you, as a student majoring in chemistry, physics or
engineering, unique opportunity to participate in cutting-edge research projects
sponsored by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), the
National Science Foundation (NSF), and the Department of Defense (DOD). As a
participant, you will work on research problems of fundamental and practical
importance in nanomaterials, photonics, and spin electronics.
You may choose to work with random medium lasers, photovoltaic polymers,
transparent gain ceramics, optical composites, computational modeling or
spin-polarized transport phenomena. These materials and phenomena have
applications in new generation computers, efficient conversion of sunlight into
electricity, expansion of lasers applications, and improvement of optical
communications. The program will immerse you in exciting research, and learning,
while having fun and making new friends.
Undergraduate Summer Research-Join us this summer!
- Share the excitement of discovery. Spend 8 weeks in one of CMR’s
state-of-the-art laboratories, participating in the designing, preparation and
characterization of novel materials.
- If you are interested in careers in special materials for technological
applications, you are encouraged to apply to the CMR Undergraduate Summer
Research Experience.
- You will receive competitive stipend, meals, and housing for non-local
students.
- You will be a part of the larger NSF/STARS program, participate in
educational and fun field trips, and present your research results at local
and regional conferences.
- It is the perfect opportunity to immerse in a research project, and call
it your own!
This year you may choose between the 8-week, 6/1-7/22, or 10-week program,
5/23-7/22. The shorter version takes place at the CMR, Norfolk State University.
The 10-week program consists of shared experience at both the CMR and Georgia
Institute of Technology. Please download the application package, and submit it
before the deadline.
