Applications are invited from undergraduates to participate in the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Summer Intern Program at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, MA.
We anticipate offering ten astronomical research positions during the summer of 2016. The program will likely run 10 weeks from June 5 - August 13. However these dates may change depending on the availability of Harvard housing. Please check these pages for updates.
Students are exected to be in residence at the SAO for the full duration of the program.
Research opportunities may exist in all areas of astrophysics, including extragalactic and Galactic astronomy, interstellar medium and star formation, stellar astrophysics, laboratory astrophysics and astro-chemistry, instrumentation, supernovae and supernova remnants, planetary and atmospheric science, and cosmology.
The program hopes to provide students with the opportunity to present a paper at a scientific meeting, given the availability of funding.
The financial award is expected to be $5000.00 for the summer. Housing and travel will be subsidized.
Summer Interns are required to write a research-style paper (approximately 10 pages long) over the course of the summer and to present the results of their work in the form of a 15 minute oral presentation at an "Intern Symposium" at the end of the summer.
