[Lorelei Chopard]

*JSA Minority/Female Undergraduate Research Assistantship (MFURA)*

Jefferson Lab is seeking candidates for a Research Assistantship. JSA 
will provide funds to support a junior or senior level student at the 
university during the 2015-2016 academic year. This project is supported 
by the JSA Initiatives Fund Program, a commitment from the JSA owners, 
SURA and PAE Applied Technologies. Initiatives Funds support programs, 
initiatives, and activities that further the scientific outreach, 
promote the science, education and technology of the Jefferson Lab and 
benefit the Lab’s extended user community in ways that complement the 
lab’s basic and applied research missions. In recent years, students 
have used the funds to aide the exploration of 3D printed scintillator 
detectors for the study of field emission in the accelerating cavities 
as well as presented at the SEAPS conference on work done on the 
PrimEx—II Collaboration.

The funds are to support a student on a project related to research at 
Jefferson Lab.

faculty member at the university.

· The student should be in their junior or senior year during the 2015 – 
2016 academic year.

· JSA will provide the funds to the University to pay the student 
through their student employment program. The assistantship will not 
provide support for tuition, fees and other such expenses.

to the Lab.
