REU at Penn State University in Scalable Nanomanufacturing of Complex Materials

The Nanomanufacturing of Emerging 2D Materials and Devices summer undergraduate research program provides undergraduate students with an opportunity to experience research within a small team environment reflective of the organizational structure typical of the semiconductor industry. Undergraduate students work as part of small interdisciplinary research team that includes other fellow undergraduate summer researchers, their faculty advisors and graduate student mentors, all of whom working together towards a novel device or process development goal. Each undergraduate has an individual responsibility on the team and questions to investigate that tie directly into the overall team objectives. The undergraduate students also receive training in responsible conduct of research, data management, and laboratory safety; and they take part in professional development opportunities, interact with engineers in the semiconductor industry, and participate in social activities.

If you would like to join us as part of the cohort of undergraduate students next summer, please fill out our application form. This program is open to all U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Applicants from academic institutions where research programs are limited, female students, students with disabilities, students who are veterans of the U.S. Armed Services and underrepresented minority students are strongly encouraged to apply.
