Every summer the Institute welcomes a small number of highly motivated and extremely talented undergraduates who benefit from exposure to the rich interdisciplinary mix of ideas at SFI. Students are matched with one or more mentors with meaningful research problems of interest to the student and to which the intern can make significant contributions. These mentorships have produced continuing collaborations and have resulted in several co-authored papers in the refereed literature. This summer SFI welcomes six participants to this NSF-supported program.
