Apply for NIST Internships
Dear Colleagues,
I am the Managing Director of the Northeast Advanced Technological Education Center (NEATEC), a NSF-funded ATE Center located at SUNY Polytechnic Institute in Albany, NY.
This email is to let you know that the Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST) NanoFab, at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), and NEATEC are sponsoring internships for your students to take place during the Summer 2022 term at the CNST in Gaithersburg, MD. We will sponsor two students (community college and/or four-year technical colleges) during this term. The duration of the internships is 14 weeks, and the starting date is May 23rd, 2022. The student must attend the whole period.
Each student will receive a stipend of $650 per week during the duration of the internship and a one-payment of $500 to cover travel expenses.
This is a great opportunity for your students and recent graduates to enhance their resumes and to learn, in particular, about semiconductors, nanotechnology hands-on activities, and cleanroom tools. The program is designed for students enrolled in engineering or technical fields, such as Electrical, mechanical, manufacturing, semiconductor, nanotechnology, and other related fields. Also, students enrolled in science programs, such as Engineering Science, physics, and chemistry are welcome to apply. However, special consideration will be given to students with a basic background in semiconductor and nanotechnology fabrication and processes.
