National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)- Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program Grant

Program:  NIST is soliciting applications from eligible colleges and universities in the U.S. and its territories, nominating undergraduate students to participate in the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program (SURF Program). The SURF Program will provide research opportunities for undergraduate students to work with internationally known NIST scientists, to expose them to cutting-edge research, and to promote the pursuit of graduate degrees in science and engineering.

Eligibility:  Colleges and universities in the U.S. and its territories with degree-granting programs in biology, chemistry, computer science, engineering, materials science, mathematics, nanoscale science, neutron research, and/or physics. Due to the size of SURF Boulder, applicants that apply to SURF Boulder are limited to nominating no more than eight (8) undergraduate students for participation; however, at this time, applicants are not limited in the number of students that they may nominate for SURF Gaithersburg. If you are interested in this program, please contact your Program Dev. Specialist (PDS) at: http://www.research.olemiss.edu/proposal-development.
