IFE-STAR Ecosystem Summer Undergraduate Research Opportunities

by

Applications are now open for the 2025 IFE-STAR Summer Research Program, where students can work alongside our nation’s leading scientists and researchers.

Application deadline for summer 2025: February 15, 2025

The IFE-STAR Ecosystem coordinates a national IFE summer research program for undergraduate students enrolled in US universities and colleges. Students who are accepted into this program will have opportunities to do IFE summer research at partnering organizations and universities across the nation. Applications will be shared with the research institutions based on the student’s selected interest within the application. Each institution will independently reach out to selected applicants as they fill their summer research openings. Financial support is available through each institution.

Consortium with Minority Serving Institutions Delivers Opportunities for Students

by

The Consortium for High Energy Density Science (CfHEDS) had much to celebrate at its annual meeting this summer at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL).

“It was exciting to connect with our academic partners and their students,” said Federica Coppari, the LLNL liaison to CfHEDS. “The best part is hearing from the students about their research experience.”

The goal of CfHEDS is to expand and diversify the pipeline of students in high-energy-density science (HEDS), a field critical to much of the work done at LLNL. In 2018, CfHEDS was launched with a grant from the National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA)’s Minority Serving Institution Partnership Program (MSIPP), which has been renewed through 2027.
