Undergraduate Laboratory Internships

About SULI
This program places students in paid internships in Science and Engineering
at any of several Department of Energy facilities. Many of the participants
in the program have decided on a career in science and engineering because
of the nature of the experience. Students work with scientists or engineers
on projects related to the laboratories' research programs. The different
laboratories each offer different research opportunities (see Choosing
a Lab).
The summer programs at the various laboratories will run from late May
to mid-August, fall programs run from August through December and spring
programs from January through May. The exact start date will depend on
the laboratory and will be given to participants who have been accepted
at that specific laboratory. Students are required to participate for
the full term of the program.
What is Expected of Each Participant
Every participant is required to:
- Complete the full ten or sixteen week program
- Complete entrance and exit surveys on the EDULINK web-site
- Behave in a responsible and professional manner
- Submit a complete copy of a Research Paper or Power Point presentation
(depending on the individual laboratory's policy)
- Submit an abstract of their research in the required format
- Attend all scheduled events including lectures, tours and group activities.
Participants should expect to spend more than 40 hours per week and more
than 8 hours per day in activities and/or research related to their internships.

An appointment is for 10 weeks during the Summer Term (May through August)
or for 16 weeks during the Fall Term (August through December) and Spring
