Physics Research Opportunites

Summer Opportunities

Physics students have numerous opportunities for summer work that is related to their career goals. Students who are interested in research can work with physics department faculty and in research laboratories at other universitites and research institutions. Students may also find paid internships with engineering and technical companies that utilize their science education and provide valuable practical training. We encourage all students to take advantage of these opportunities for research and/or practical training. Students should start thinking about the summer during the Thanksgiving break of the previous year. Many places have application deadlines in January or early February.

Opportunities Available at JCU

  • Work with faculty from the physics department. Please contact the faculty directly.

  • Work with faculty from The Cleveland Clinic and CWRU Medical School. This program is funded by the Huntington and Codrington foundations. Posters announcing the application procedure and application deadlines will be placed on the department notice board early in the Spring semester.

  • Internships in applied optics with the Lighting Innovations Institute. Lighting Innovations is a contract research company located on the JCU campus. Please contact Dr. Richard Hansler from the Lighting Innovations Web Page.

    • Other Opportunities - National REU Programs

    Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) programs are ten-week summer programs hosted by many unversitites and national laboratories. Links to the sponsoring agencies and all the REU programs that have contacted the physics department can be found at the above link.
