Quantum Foundry@UCSB 2022 Undergraduate Summer Internship
Do you know a college student who is looking for a paid summer internship in physics, chemistry or engineering?
The Quantum Foundry internship program funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and hosted at the University of California Santa Barbara (UCSB) is currently recruiting undergraduates. The program seeks to engage science and engineering undergraduate students from California Community Colleges, California State Universities, and other primarily undergraduate institutions for an 8-week summer research experience June 20-August 12, 2022.
Undergraduate interns will gain first-hand experience in quantum-related scientific investigation via a dynamic, collaborative research environment. They are matched individually with Foundry faculty and graduate student lab mentors who provide ongoing training and support. Interns also participate in professional development activities preparing them for graduate research and the workforce.
The internship webpage provides details about program benefits, student eligibility, and participating faculty. The deadline to complete the online application is February 6, 2022.
Please note that research internships are anticipated to be in-person depending on local COVID-19 restrictions. Program details are subject to change, though we expect to be able to offer a summer research experience in 2022.
If you have questions, please attend the virtual Info Session on Thursday, 1/20 from 5:00-6:00 pm. Register for link at https://tinyurl.com/CSEPevents
2022 Internship with PIPELINES UCSB and Ventura Naval Base
The Problem-based Initiatives for Powerful Engagement and Learning In Naval Engineering and Science (PIPELINES) is an 8-week summer internship for community college undergraduates, a collaboration between UC Santa Barbara and the Naval Base at Port Hueneme and Point Mugu.
Students work in teams at the Naval Base on real-world science/engineering design projects, under the guidance of a Navy engineer and a UCSB graduate student mentor. Once a week, students visit UCSB for training in innovation and other professional development activities.
More information, including last year's projects, can be found on the PIPELINES website. http://pipelines-csep.cnsi.ucsb.edu/
Applicants must be US citizens and full-time students at a California
community college.
Military veterans and underrepresented students are strongly encouraged to apply.
Background check required for official acceptance.
Interns are paid $4,000 for the 8 weeks.
The online application is open now until February 6, 2022.
We are hosting information sessions on:
- Friday, 1/14 from 12:00-1:00 pm
- Friday, 1/21 from 9:00-10:00 am
- Monday, 1/24 from 5:00-6:00 pm
Students are welcome to attend one session or multiple if they have additional questions.

This is an amazing opportunity for engineering students to experience a real work environment, and understand better what it means to be a (civilian) scientist or engineer!
