Dear Bucknell Engineers: I hope your first week back has gone smoothly! Please see attached an opportunity for an NSF-funded summer research in biomaterials at Syracuse University. This is within Syracuse Biomaterials Institute, which was my old institute prior to Bucknell. I can vouch for the high quality of the program and expect that current juniors (but also sophomores) in biomedical, chemical, or mechanical engineering would be the most interested and competitive. Many other summer research opportunities can be found at the following links: NSF https://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/r eu/reu_search.jsp (see Engineering, Materials Science, Biological Sciences, or SBIR) NIST https://www.nist.gov/surf NASA https://intern.nasa.gov/ossi/w eb/public/main/ DoE https://science.energy.gov/wdt s/suli/ (deadline passed ... keep for the future though!)
