CENTC Undergraduate Summer Research Program Accepting Applications

Get practical experience in chemical sciences this summer. The Center for Enabling New Technologies Through Catalysis (CENTC) invites college students with an interest in chemistry to apply for a unique summer research program as part of our NSF-funded, distributed center. 

Undergraduate fellowships are available to conduct research at a choice of CENTC’s 14 locations during the summer of 2013. Research projects include investigating new ways to produce clean, efficient fuels and ways to convert renewable resources to fuels and useful chemicals. The program is 10 weeks long, running from June 17, 2013 through August 23, 2013. Fellows will receive a stipend and compensation for travel and housing. For more information and to complete an application, visit this website.

Undergraduate students at all levels with an interest in chemical sciences will be considered for the program, with preference given to rising juniors and seniors. CENTC strongly encourages applications from women and individuals from groups underrepresented in the sciences. Previous research experience is not required, and participants must be United States citizens or permanent residents.
