THIS MAY BE OF INTEREST TO YOUR STUDENTS (or you if you are a student
receiving this!)!!

PLEASE read carefully and direct all questions to: outreach-stueng at xsede.org

(following this simple directive is probably the minimum requirement
to participate! :)

The XSEDE Student Engagement Program is seeking undergraduate and
graduate students for a 10-week project experience for this summer.
Working with XSEDE researchers and staff, students will make
meaningful contributions to research, development and systems projects
that benefit the national scientific and computational community. In
exchange, students will be provided with travel support for project
orientation and to attend the XSEDE’12 conference in Chicago, IL in
July, and a small stipend.

Projects for 2012 address a wide variety of computational needs. Most
of the projects allow students to work remotely (from their home or
home institution), although some require the student to be onsite at
their supervisor’s institution. All projects will have well-defined
work plans, established collaboratively at the orientation meeting.
Students are also expected to participate in surveys and other
evaluation activities, to help XSEDE track the effectiveness and
impact of the program.

Available projects are listed at
https://www.xsede.org/student-engagement-projects. To apply, complete
the form online at https://www.xsede.org/student-intern-form and email
your current resume and current academic transcripts to
outreach-stueng at xsede.org. Your application will not be considered
until all material has been received.

IMPORTANT DATES:
Application Deadline: April 2, 2012
Interviews: April 9-16 (via conference calls)
Student Notification: April 23
Orientation:  May 29-June 1 (location(s) to be determined)
XSEDE’12: July 16-20 (Chicago, IL)

Questions can be send to outreach-stueng at xsede.org.
