Kansas State University department of physics is hosting an NSF-funded Research Experiences for Undergraduate (REU) program entitled Interactions of Matter, Light and Learning for ten weeks this summer.
Kansas NSF EPSCoR will sponsor up to three undergraduate students attending school in Kansas or Nebraska who are willing to join a group of about a dozen undergraduate students selected nationwide. These students will be funded by the NSF-EPSCoR Track 2 grant, Imaging and Controlling Ultrafast Dynamics of Atoms, Molecules, and Nanostructures.
Student participants supported by Kansas NSF EPSCoR will be involved with a variety of atomic, molecular and optical (AMO) research projects at the leading edge of world-class research. For example, students will study the attosecond physics of electrons in matter; quantum and coherent control of atoms and molecules; atomic and molecular dynamics; and imaging techniques, using ultrafast lasers. They will have access to our state-of-the-art facilities, including three ultrafast high intensity laser systems. All students will be full participants in active research groups and will be mentored by faculty who are recognized both for their research and for their teaching abilities, including faculty in our highly rated atomic physics program.
Students selected to participate will receive a stipend of $4,500-$5,000, partial travel expenses, and room and board, a total value of over $8,000. They will live on campus with students in the physics and other REU programs and will have access to all the usual facilities at Kansas State: libraries, recreation centers, etc.
Online applications are available at www.phys.ksu.edu/reu. The same application is used for this program and K-State's nation-wide REU program. An unofficial transcript and letter of reference are also required. Applications will be reviewed beginning March 18 and will continue until all places are filled.
Additional information can be obtained by calling (785) 532-1612 or e-mail reu@phys.ksu.edu.
