| Description: | |
The US CMS Summer Undergraduate Research Internship Program seeks to address the under-representation of women and minoritized students in STEM fields, in particular Physics. It is a 10-week paid internship program, which offers female and minority undergraduate students an opportunity to perform a project under the mentorship of scientists working at the frontier of Physics at one of the 50+ institutions in the US. The internship program is open to students pursuing physics, engineering, computer science, math, chemistry, or related majors. We aim to strengthen our research by increasing diversity. The research internships will be structured to encourage students to persist in a STEM major through college and to train them in skills needed for a future career in the STEM workforce, in order to sustain a diverse and inclusive talent pool in research and innovation. This immersive research internship opportunity will cover areas in instrumentation, technology, and computing projects. Students will use computational tools and data-science methods to learn about fundamental particles and their interactions, by analyzing data obtained from the CMS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located at CERN, Switzerland. The pool of mentors are physicists from US institutes affiliated with the CMS experiment at the LHC and at the rank of university faculty, scientists from national labs, postdoctoral fellows, and advanced graduate students.

Applications may be submitted via academicjobsonline.org between December 12, 2022 and January 31, 2023. Selected applicants will participate in a paid 10-week internship from June 5, 2023 until Aug 11, 2023 and will receive a stipend of $600 per week with an expected work commitment of 40 hours per week. Travel to and housing at the research institution site will be provided by the program. Notification of selection will be sent to applicants by March 31, 2023. The program is funded by the DOE RENEW-HEP: U.S. CMS SPRINT award at Tougaloo College, Brown University, University of Puerto Rico (Mayaguez), University of Wisconsin, and the U.S. CMS Operations program at Fermilab and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Questions about the US CMS internship program can be directed to Prof. Sudhir Malik (sudhir.malik@upr.edu). |
