Rice University is now accepting applications for the 2013 NanoJapan:
International Research Experience for Undergraduates program.
Generously supported by an NSF Partnerships for International Research &
Education (NSF-PIRE) grant, this summer program seeks to cultivate
interest in nanotechnology among young U.S. undergraduate students,
especially those from underrepresented groups, and encourages such
students to pursue graduate study and academic research in the physical
sciences.

Recognized by the National Academy of Engineering and the Institute of
International Education's Heiskell Award as a model for international
education programs for science and engineering students, NanoJapan will
provide U.S. undergraduates with structured research opportunities in
Japanese university laboratories with Japanese mentors focused on the
study of THz dynamics of nanostructures.

Eligible students from any university nationwide are eligible to apply and
the program is well-suited to engineering or physics students with a keen
interest in this area of nanotechnology research.
