Spend Your Summer Learning and Earning at One of the World's Leading Centers for Computational Science!
Berkeley Lab, located in Berkeley, CA, is a world leader in computing, biological, physical, materials, chemical, and energy sciences research. For students majoring in Computational Science, Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, and related fields, Berkeley Lab Computing Sciences hosts a 10–12-week research summer program that provides students with the opportunity to gain research experience. Participants will work on projects in areas such as computational research, high-performance computing, and high-speed networking, or at the interface of several disciplines, under the guidance of one or more staff members.
This program is geared toward graduate students in any computing sciences-related discipline and undergraduate students between their junior and senior years who have completed core courses in Computer Science, Mathematics, or related areas of study. Projects are designed so that students will complete a significant portion of the work during the 10–12 weeks. The exact starting date is at the mutual convenience of the student and the needs of the program.
Summer students will work on projects within one of the four divisions in the Computing Sciences Area: the Applied Mathematics and Computational Research Division, the Energy Sciences Network (ESnet), the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), and the Scientific Data Division.
Applied Mathematics and Computational Research Division
The Applied Mathematics & Computational Research Division conducts research and development in mathematical modeling, simulation and analysis, numerical algorithm design, computer system architecture, quantum information science, computational science, computer science, and high-performance software.
The Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) is a high-performance, unclassified network built to support scientific research. ESnet provides services to more than 50 DOE research sites, including the entire National Laboratory system, its supercomputing facilities, and its major scientific instruments. ESnet also connects to 140 research and commercial networks, permitting DOE-funded scientists to productively collaborate with partners worldwide.
The National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC) is the primary scientific computing facility for the Office of Science in the U.S. Department of Energy. As one of the largest facilities in the world devoted to providing computational resources and expertise for basic scientific research, NERSC is a world leader in accelerating scientific discovery through computation.
The Scientific Data Division (SciData) transforms data-driven discovery and understanding through the development and application of novel data science methods, technologies, and infrastructures with scientific partners.
Students must be enrolled in a full-time academic program at an accredited college or university. Proof of enrollment is required.
Salary Range
The hourly range for this position is $18.67- $48.27. Pay will be dependent on the current level of education.
