NIST Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF)
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) offers paid Summer internships through their SURF program with opportunities at NIST facilities in Gaithersburg and Boulder. Many of the participating research projects are looking for students majoring in Computer Science or Computer Engineering.
The eleven week program starts in the last week of May and provides a generous stipend and housing (if needed). It is open to United States citizens or permanent U.S. residents who attend U.S. colleges or universities. It is competitive, but in the past, about one in three applicants was accepted. Applications are due by February 1 and must be submitted by UMBC. If you are interested, read more about the application process and come to the NIST SURF Information Session from 3:00 to 4:00 on Friday, December 2 in Sondheim 108.
