This program, funded by the National Science Foundation, offers the opportunity of a summer internship, complete with stipend and additional funds for subsistence, for qualified undergraduates to pursue specific projects in conjunction with Museum scientists either in Evolutionary Biology (Systematics and Evolution) or in Physical Sciences (Astrophysics, Earth and Planetary Science). Included in the program are a general orientation to the Museum, a series of weekly meetings at which students will discuss their research, present informal progress reports, and participate in discussions and seminars on graduate and research career opportunities. At the conclusion of the internship, students deliver oral presentations of their work, and prepare publication quality research papers. |
