National Science Foundation Science & Technology Centers 2009 Summer Undergraduate Internship Programs

Apply to the NSF-STC Summer Undergraduate Internship Program! The National Science Foundation Science and Technology Centers (STCs) offer paid summer internships at our seventeen centers, located at prestigious universities around the United States . These summer internships provide undergraduates an opportunity to conduct research in a graduate schoolsetting in the following fields: 1) biological sciences, 2) computer and information sciences, 3) engineering, 4) geosciences, and 5) mathematical and physical sciences.

These summer research opportunities are fully funded and are an excellent way to gain a competitive edge toward graduate school. The centers are currently accepting applications for the 2009 Summer Programs. Deadlines are rapidly approaching and I would like to encourage anyone interested to apply. For more information on participating Centers and their application process and deadlines please visit www.nsfstc.org.
