We invite students to the Laboratory’s third annual Computing Across the Sciences – Mini-Semester for Underrepresented Groups in STEM on Tuesday, December 13, 2023 through Friday, December 16, 2022. This year’s Mini-Semester will be conducted virtually on Zoom. The four half-day immersive experience will provide:
- Learning Blocks – Hands-on learning sessions to build computational skills desired by research mentors.
- Application 101 – Workshops to dissect each component of the SULI and CCI application.
- Computational Science Seminars – In-depth overviews of key research areas by leading researchers at Argonne.
- Networking Sessions – Panel discussions with Argonne research mentors and former internship students.
- DOE Exploration – Learn about the National Laboratory complex directly from the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science.
Our goal for this Mini-Semester is to showcase the diverse STEM research and opportunities at Argonne and across the DOE national laboratory complex with a computational lens, provide small hands-on experiences to build key skills in research, and support students in their completion of SULI and CCI internship applications.
