When
In the Engineering Undergraduate Internship Program, engineering undergraduate students join engineers at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory for 10 weeks in the summer providing a valuable, practical experience as an engineer at a National Laboratory. The program aims to increase the number of people from underrepresented groups in the energy workforce. Applicants must apply online, providing a transcript and the contact details for two reference letters. Participants are offered a competitive stipend, housing at the Princeton University dorms, and travel to/from Princeton. Participants will attend a week-long course in plasma physics at the start of the program and will deliver an oral and a poster presentation of their project at its conclusion.
To be eligible, applicants must:
- be enrolled in a four-year college or university
- be enrolled in relevant STEM courses
- be eligible for work in the United States
It is strongly recommended that students have:
- some experience relevant to engineering design, analysis or fabrication
- a strong interest in engineering and technology
