Several Federal Agencies offer undergraduate summer research programs, including the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). They are highly competitive and provide outstanding training and experience if you are interested in research as a career.
While this information session will not cover every opportunity available, it will discuss both the NIST Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) program and the NIH Summer Internship Program in detail as well as information on where to find summer opportunities and things to think about when applying.
Whether you are simply curious about what is available or already committed to applying, this is an hour worth your time.
