Subject: Dartmouth College Research Opportunity for Undergraduates in Nanomaterials
Please post this notice for your undergraduate students and forward to
appropriate faculty regarding the 2009 REU program in Nanomaterials and
Nanotechnology at Dartmouth College.
The program is funded by the NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates program
and the Department of Defense ASSURE program to support ten physics,
engineering, and chemistry students to participate in current research at the
Center for Nanomaterials Research at Dartmouth.
Additional information, including application forms and further details about
the program are available
on-line at http://engineering.dartmouth.edu/nanomaterials by clicking on the
"summer program" link. The March 13th deadline is quickly approaching, so be
sure to contact nanomaterials@dartmouth.edu for more information.
Through the program, undergraduates work for nine weeks with faculty in
state-of-the-art facilities on independent research projects in nanomaterials
and nanotechnology. Weekly discussion sessions and trips to regional research
labs are included. Participants receive a stipend of $4,050 and on-campus
housing is provided. In addition, participants receive a lab supply budget
and are reimbursed for up to $700 for travel from their home institution to
attend the program. The program concludes with a public poster session where
the students present their research. When not in the lab, the Connecticut River
area offers a large variety of activities; from hiking, canoeing and biking to
world-class performances at the Hopkins Center. Access to college athletic
facilities and the nine campus libraries are provided to the program
participants.
In particular, minorities and women are encouraged to apply.
If you have any questions about our program, please do not hesitate to call or
email me.
Sincerely,
