Note: before committing, please read what the specific opportunity entails, if you decide you would like to get the student/become a mentor then before committing get approval from your department head and inform both Ryan Herbst (as our ID director) and Sander Breur (as DEI coordinator).

(undergraduate, summer intern, DOE pays the bill)
Every year we get about 80 undergraduate students through these DOE funded programs. Students have to apply directly to the DOE, the program then is hosted and organized by Freeman, Hillary <hillary@slac.stanford.edu>. The students would be on-site for between 8 to 10 weeks over the summer months, we assume two hours a day for pure mentoring, 50% of this should be covered by one of your projects, the other 50% will be covered by ID overhead. The students need a place to work
(undergraduate, summer intern, LCLS pays the bill)
Every year the 'LCLS Summer Internship Program' is coordinated by Fry, Alan R. <alanfry@slac.stanford.edu> and has the goal to have 25 undergraduate summer interns working on site at SLAC. These projects have to be LCLS focused. The students would be on-site for between 8 to 10 weeks over the summer months, we assume two hours a day for pure mentoring, 50% of this should be covered by one of your projects, the other 50% will be covered by ID overhead. The students need a place to work
Twice a year grad students from other universities can apply for a year-long scholarship paid for by the DOE to work at one of our national lab. A total of 60 students a year are chosen.
