The Research Experience for Undergraduates Program in Systematics and Evolutionary Biology is funded by the National Science Foundation and has been in place for 30 years. Our program brings approximately ten students to the American Museum of Natural History in New York City each summer for a ten-week experience working with our curators, faculty, and post-doctoral fellows.

Research projects span diverse fields of comparative biology including paleontology, genomics, population biology, conservation biology, and phylogenetics and taxonomy. Students have access to the Museum's immense natural history collections as well as state-of-the-art equipment for advanced imaging (CT scanner, SEM, TEM) and genomics (Sanger and pyrosequencing platforms).

Students receive a $6000 traineeship stipend, as well as per diem costs for housing and meals, relocation expenses, and transportation subsidies. Pending COVID pandemic conditions, and assuming the program is held onsite at AMNH, housing at nearby Columbia University is made available.

All students in the program must be U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals or permanent residents of the United States. Students must be entering or continuing in an Associates or Baccalaureate degree program following their summer internship. As part of the National Science Foundation's commitment to broadening participation in STEM fields, we especially encourage students who come from community colleges, undergraduate-only institutions, and minority-serving institutions to apply. Applications will be accepted from January 1-January 31, 2021. For questions with application process, contact info-rggs@amnh.org.

The Research Experience for Undergraduates Program in Physical Sciences (Earth and Planetary Sciences and Astrophysics) is funded by the National Science Foundation. The Museum's Division of Physical Sciences—in collaboration with the City University of New York (CUNY)—is pleased to offer summer undergraduate research opportunities in Astrophysics, and Earth and Planetary Sciences.

Our program brings approximately eight students to the American Museum of Natural History in New York City each summer for a ten-week experience working with our curators, faculty, and post-doctoral fellows. Students receive a $5000 traineeship stipend, as well as per diem costs for housing and meals, relocation expenses, and transportation subsidies. Housing is made available at nearby Columbia University.

Students will conduct research in Germany, Italy, Singapore, or the United Kingdom for 10-12 weeks under the guidance of faculty and graduate students.

The ACS International Research Experiences for Students (IRES) programs are bilateral exchanges funded by the National Science Foundation that allow talented young chemical and materials scientists to spend a summer conducting research in another country.

Students spend 10-12 weeks working on frontier chemical and materials science research projects under the guidance of faculty members and graduate student mentors to sharpen scientific skills, develop collaborations with scientists abroad, and experience the life and culture of a foreign country.
For the summer of 2021, up to 7 students from the United States will be selected to conduct research in Germany and receive material support through the ACS IRES program. Research in Germany is conducted in tandem with and facilitated by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) RISE Program.

To be eligible for the ACS IRES program in Germany, students must:

Be a citizen or permanent resident of the United States
Be enrolled full-time in a chemistry, materials science, biochemistry, or chemical engineering program at an accredited U.S. university or college
Students from underrepresented groups in sciences are strongly encouraged to apply.
Have one semester or summer of prior experience working in a research laboratory outside of normal coursework
Be a rising junior or senior by the end of the program with at least one semester of enrollment remaining after the summer
Competitive applicants will have a GPA above a 3.4 on a 4.0 scale
Please note that membership in ACS is not a judgement criteria and all students, regardless of membership status, are welcome to apply

ASU will host Research Experiences for Undergraduates in "NanoBioengineering" in Summer 2018. Students will work with research mentors in a 9-week multidisciplinary summer research program. Faculty from biological sciences, chemistry, physical sciences and other related disciplines will serve as mentors for the program. All research projects will be based on novel concepts of design and development of new nanomaterials for biological applications. Students will participate in a full-time closely mentored lab research project along with seminars and various professional development workshops, such as the responsible conduct of research, professional communication skills, career opportunities in academia and industry, and the graduate school application process. Students will present their findings at a poster session or research symposium during the final week of the program. Housing, a stipend, and meal and travel allowances will be provided. Students will be selected based on their interest in research, academic record, and letters of recommendation. Summer interns will be required to be tracked after the program and must respond to an automatic email sent via the NSF reporting system.

$575.00 stipend per week; On-campus housing; Meal and Travel allowances available.

A total of ten students will be accepted. Students must be US citizens or permanent residents enrolled in a Bachelor Degree program (biology, biomedical engineering, chemistry, physics, material science, engineering, biomedical science and related fields). We hope to provide opportunities for students of diverse backgrounds, so if you identify with an under-represented minority group from colleges with limited research opportunities, are economically disadvantaged, we encourage you to apply. If you will graduate in May or June during the year of the program, you are not eligible for the summer experience.

Welcome to the Department of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics in the College of Engineering, Technology and Physical Sciences. Our department is focused on student learning and prepares them for the challenges and opportunities presented by our modern technical society. Within our department, we provide students with excellent learning opportunities, engaging research experiences and outstanding advising and mentoring.

The Department of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics is a diverse department offering strong academic programs. The department offers a bachelor’s degree in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics with several minor program options. In addition, Physics has graduate programs (M.S. and Ph.D.) specializing in Materials Science, Optics/Lasers, Ambient Energy Systems, and Space Science. Students have access to state-of-the-art laboratories, instrumentation and computational facilities. The faculty within the Department work extremely hard at providing students with opportunities to pursue their academic and research goals.

Minimum Grade Point Average (GPA) 2.0 to be accepted. The final high school transcript must reflect a minimum 2.0 GPA or higher. If you have ACT or SAT test scores, please email the results to your Admissions Assistant.
