[Acmsmajors] 2007 SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH OPPORTUNITY AT UCLA

[Julie Martinson]

The Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM), a national research
institute supported by The National Science Foundation, is now accepting
applications for its 2007 Summer Program, Research in Industrial Projects
for Students (RIPS).  This opportunity is open to eligible undergraduate
students.

RIPS is a nine-week, intensive residential research experience for math,
engineering, computer science and physical/life science undergraduate
students that assigns teams of four students to a project designed by an
industrial sponsor. Last year's project sponsors were: Arete Associates,
Inc., Hewlett Packard, Inc.,The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Lawrence
Livermore and Los Alamos National Laboratories, NASA Goddard Space Flight
Center, TimeLogic, Inc. and Pixar Animation Studios, Symantec Corp.. The
RIPS web site at  <http://www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/rips2007/>
http://www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/rips2007/ will provide you with full
details, including financial support information and the online application.

In 2007, IPAM will introduce RIPS-Beijing in collaboration with Microsoft
Research Asia (MSRA). The dates and format of the program are the same as
RIPS-LA. The online application form will allow the applicants to indicate
their interest either in RIPS-LA, RIPS-Beijing, or both.

Students are selected from an international applicant pool to provide the
broadest possible intellectual and cultural experience to the students who
participate in our program. Students who have a sufficient background for
the program are usually rising juniors, seniors or are about to graduate.
The application deadline is February 15, 2007.
