iVEC > Research Internship Projects 2009 |
The iVEC summer Research Internship program provides an excellent opportunity for undergraduate students to undertake cutting edge research in the application or development of advanced computing. Successful students will take part in a 10 week+ program including an induction week on advanced computing techniques, and culminating in a presentation at the iVEC eResearch Forum 2010. Students must be third year and above, studying at an iVEC member institution. Full details of the program and how to apply are available at http://ivec.org/interns. Applications close 14th October 2009 |
| Students applying for the 2009-2010 internship program should nominate three projects from the list below on their application form. The projects are grouped into Science, Computing, Geoscience and Radioastronomy, each suiting a range of backgrounds.
We encourage students to consider projects at any of the universities and CSIRO. |
