Opportunity Information: Apply for 2009 PREP
The Professional Research Experience Program (PREP) is a grant opportunity from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) aimed at providing financial assistance to accredited colleges and universities. This funding allows these institutions to offer laboratory experiences and financial support to undergraduate students, graduate students, and postdoctoral associates at NIST's Boulder Laboratories in Boulder, Colorado.
The program focuses on five key laboratories: the Electronics and Electrical Laboratory (EEEL), the Chemical Science and Technology Laboratory (CSTL), the Physics Laboratory (PL), the Materials Science and Engineering Laboratory (MSEL), and the Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO). PREP aims to promote scientific and engineering advancement in the U.S. by creating research opportunities that allow students and postdoctoral associates to work alongside renowned NIST scientists and engage in cutting-edge research.
In addition to enhancing students' educational experiences, PREP encourages them to pursue degrees in science and engineering and supports the professional development of postdoctoral associates. The NIST PREP Coordinator, in collaboration with academic department chairs and outreach coordinators, will help identify suitable students and programs to participate in the program.
Applicants must ensure that students are available for on-site collaborative research at NIST while they continue their university studies. It is essential that participating students are enrolled in programs accepted by both the sponsoring institution and NIST.Apply for 2009 PREP
