The\u00a0ISTernship<\/strong>\u00a0(\u201cIST<\/em>-\u201d + \u201c(int)ernship<\/em>\u201c) is a summer internship program for bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s students who are looking to expand their scientific research experience. Every summer since 2013, roughly 30-40 students join the ISTernship program and work closely with our faculty or a lab member on a short research project.<\/p>\n
