SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXPERIENCE
May 31 - July 29, 2011
2011 Summer Undergraduate Research Symposium
WVNano SURE is for students who interested in a career in science, technology, engineering, or mathematics disciplines.
- Information regarding the WVNano Initiative can be found here.
- List of WVNano research faculty can be found here.
- Selected students will work in a WVNano research lab for 8 weeks during the summer under a WVNano professor and a graduate or post doctoral mentor
- The 8 weeks begins on Tuesday, May 31 and ends on Friday, July 29, 2011. However, if the student and their research professor reach agreement regarding vacation/break, then as long as students are in the labs for 8 weeks after June 1 and before the end of summer, the ending date is flexible.
- If selected, students will be given a $3600 stipend for their 8 weeks of work.
- Students will be registered for a 1-credit hour research class that they will be required to attend once a week for the duration of SURE. WVNano will pay the tuition for this class.
- SURE students will need to find their own place to live in or near Morgantown.
- SURE students will under no circumstances be allowed to have another job while they are doing research under SURE. Only under very rare and exceptional circumstances (with approval from WVNano and their research professors) will students be able to take summer classes (besides the 1 hour SURE course) during their research experience.
- Students will be expected to present their research findings in the form of a poster presentation at the Summer Undergraduate Research Symposium 2011, held Thursday, July 28, 2011.
