Los Alamos National Laboratory’s X Computational Physics Workshop and Internship Programs 2023

By | Educational, Events, News, SC2 jobs

Applications for LANL’s X-Computational Physics (XCP) division’s summer 2023 workshop / internship programs are open now. Participants will receive a fellowship stipend, the amount to be determined based on your current academic rank. There are two programs, the computational physics workshop and the parallel computing workshop. Both programs are 10 weeks in duration and require US citizenship. Admissions are rolling, with a closing date of 1/16/2023 for the Computational physics workshop and 1/20/2023 for the parallel computing workshop.

The workshops are geared toward undergraduates and early graduate students, and either would be a great introduction to LANL, and aspects of XCP’s mission (there is significant lecture time built into the schedule of both). Please note that these are effectively XCP Divisions summer internship program if students don’t already have a direct hire mechanism worked out.
