The summer REU program is sponsored
by NSF-Nanotechnology 
Undergraduate Education program (NSF-NUE). This
program runs from May 30th to July 25th, 2012 and it is open to Georgia Tech undergraduates who are
US citizens or permanent residents across schools in the colleges of Engineering and Sciences. Specifically, participants are expected to learn the
fundamentals of nanoscale science and engineering, gain hands-on experience
with research tools, work in research labs on nanotechnology-related research
projects, and ultimately translate their learning into modules for K-12 education. Full scholarship in the amount of $5,000 (including housing
allowance) will be provided to the awardees and additional $2,000 research
expenses (for lab supplies and access to GT shared research facilities) will be allocated to research groups. Awardees are expected to perform research full
time without taking any summer classes for the duration of the internship. If interested in participating in this
program, please file online application by
March 16th, 2012.
In addition to the on-line application, applicants will need to mail in a current copy of their transcripts.
