Hi Andy,
If you know of any good undergraduate students who might be interested in working with us this summer, we'd appreciate you forwarding this to them. Also, please feel free to forward this announcement to colleagues at Foothill and elsewhere. We'd like to connect a little better with community colleges in the Bay Area.
Thanks, and all the best for 2017!
Steve

Dear Colleagues,
Applications are invited for 10-week paid undergraduate research
internships at Berkeley SETI Research Center for summer 2017. BSRC is a
world-leader in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence – the quest
for a scientific answer to one of humanity’s oldest questions: Are we
alone in the Universe? Housed in the Astronomy Department at the
University of California, Berkeley, the team at BSRC leads the science
program for the $100-million Breakthrough Listen project. Our scientists
and engineers are pioneers in the development of software,
instrumentation, and science strategy for the search for intelligent
life on other worlds. We have access to substantial amounts of time on
the planet’s largest telescopes, connections to leading players in
industry, and we’re based in one of the world’s premiere astronomy
research institutions. We’re also psyched that we get to wake up each
day and hunt for aliens.
Current sophomore, junior, and senior undergraduates studying at a
degree-granting institution in the US are eligible to apply.
Approximately 10 positions will be available. Details and links to the
application form are at https://seti.berkeley.edu/Internship.html
Please circulate to colleagues and students who may be interested. Feel
free to forward this email, and / or to share our social media posts:
