Homepage | The Lab | Office of Educational Programs

Department of Energy Fellowships

The Department of Energy has several opportunities for internships and fellowships.  If you qualify for one of the programs listed below and are interested in working in my laboratory please contact me.

  • Science Undergraduate Laboratory Internships (SULI).  This program offers a 10-16 week internship for Spring, Summer or Fall.
  • Community College Institute Internships (CCI). This program offers a 10 week summer internship.

Brookhaven National Laboratory Fellowships and Programs

  • Graduate Research Internship Program (GRIP). This program offers masters and Ph.D. students on site accommodation at BNL to foster research relations between BNL and their home institution.
  • BNL High School Research Program (HSRP).  This program offers 11th and 12th grade students aged 16 or over a 6 week summer internship.

DOE, Office of Science One of ten national laboratories overseen and primarily funded by the Office of Science of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), Brookhaven National Laboratory conducts research in the physical, biomedical, and environmental sciences, as well as in energy technologies and national security. Brookhaven Lab also builds and operates major scientific facilities available to university, industry and government researchers. Brookhaven is operated and managed for DOE's Office of Science by Brookhaven Science Associates, a limited-liability company founded by the Research Foundation for the State University of New York on behalf of Stony Brook University, the largest academic user of Laboratory facilities, and Battelle, a nonprofit, applied science and technology organization.
