Summer 2008 Undergrad Internship Program in Scientific Computing and Graphics

The Supercomputing Institute for Digital Simulation and Advanced Computation is pleased to announce an Undergraduate Internship Program for Summer 2008 for undergraduate students. Projects are available in the following areas: Astronomy; Biochemistry; Bioinformatics; Biomedical Engineering; Biophysics; Chemical Engineering; Chemistry; Civil Engineering; Computer Science; Computer Engineering; Geology and Geophysics; Materials Science; Mathematics; Mechanical Engineering; Medicinal Chemistry; Molecular Biology; Pharmaceutics; Physics; Planetary Science The focus of the program is the application of computational approaches and visualization methods to supercomputing research. This includes digital simulation and advanced computation and all aspects of high-performance computing and scientific modeling and simulation as well as graphics, visualization, informatics, and high-performance network communications. Interns work with faculty members and their research groups on projects using high-performance computing environments to address problems in science and engineering that could not otherwise be attempted. This program provides an opportunity for a challenging and enriching educational experience for undergraduate students interested in pursuing graduate or professional education. Full-time, 10 weeks June 2 through August 8 $5,000 Stipend Interns are responsible for their own travel and living expenses.
