From Oak Ridge National Labs
The Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internship
(SULI) program encourages undergraduate students to pursue science, technology,
engineering, and mathematics (STEM) careers by providing research experiences
at the Department of Energy (DOE) laboratories. Selected students
participate as interns appointed at one of 15 participating DOE
laboratories. They perform research, under the guidance of laboratory staff
scientists or engineers, on projects supporting the DOE mission.
Applications are due by 10/1/2013.
