Participants may be involved in research at either IBM or San Jose State University but meet regularly as a group for a special seminar series on research at industrial and academic frontiers. Requirements vary by project, but outstanding candidates at any level and technical major in any area of science or engineering are encouraged to apply.
Preference is given to chemistry, chemical engineering, and materials science majors.
Applications are especially encouraged from students at primarily undergraduate institutions and from students who are members of underrepresented groups. Eight week positions are also available for high school teachers. No funds are available for moving or travel, but subsidized housing is available in SJSU dormitories. Announcements will be made on or before April 2, 2001.
