We are pleased to announce that applications for the IRIS-HEP
undergraduate Fellows program in Summer 2024 are now open. Selected
IRIS-HEP Fellows will spend several months working with a mentor to
build their skills while working on a research software project relevant
to the Institute.

Who should apply to the Fellows program? – Are you reasonably
comfortable with basic programming through skills acquired (for
example) from coursework or dedicated training activities? Are you
interested in building on those skills to gain experience through
contributions to cutting edge open source research software projects?
Then the IRIS-HEP Fellows program could be for you. Prior physics
knowledge is helpful, but not required. We will also offer dedicated
training activities to help you improve specific software skills.
Applications from women and members of underrepresented groups in
STEM activities are particularly encouraged.

Fellows will receive a training stipend as part of their participation.

This year’s program is open to students associated to US universities,
students of Ukrainian origin and students from Vilnius University.

Applications submitted before Monday, 11 March, 2024 (end of the day, any
time zone) will prioritized for consideration. The application form will
however remain open and applications can nonetheless be submitted
through March 25th, 2024.

For more information on the program including how to apply, and
links to projects of past Fellows, please see:

CCT REU: Interdisciplinary Research Experience in Computational Sciences
http://reu.cct.lsu.edu/
*****************************************************************************

The Center for Computation & Technology (CCT) will host a ten week Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program where students work collaboratively on a wide variety of computational science projects. Each student receives a stipend of $7,000, free housing in university dormitories, and up to $600 in travel expenses to and from Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Ten students will be selected.

Qualifications:
Undergraduate, community college student, or high school senior attending college in the fall, interested in a major that is within the computational sciences umbrella (leaves out few majors as it includes all sciences, mathematics, engineering, finance, statistics, etc.) with at least a 2.75 GPA, considering a career in research and/or graduate school in your major, being a US citizen or permanent resident, and graduating at least one semester after completion of the REU.

Important Dates:
March 1, 2024: Application deadline.
April 1, 2024: Notification of decision.
May 27, 2024 through August 3, 2024: Program dates.

The research activities of the CCT are organized into five Focus Areas: Core Computing Sciences, Coast to Cosmos, Material World, Cultural Computing, and System Science and Engineering. These are broad, and sometimes overlapping areas where faculty from diverse departments (Mathematics, Computer Science, Physics, Civil Engineering, Oceanography & Coastal Sciences, Petroleum Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Electrical & Computing Engineering, Music, Business, etc.) collaborate in multidisciplinary projects. Our REU students learn how to use some of the nation’s largest supercomputers, may participate in the setup and management of large-scale simulations, and may take on an important role in the analysis and visualization of the simulation results.
