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. <br>
<br>
The funds are to support a student on a project related to
research at Jefferson Lab. <br>
<br>
· The student will work at the university under the guidance
of a faculty member at the university. <br>
<br>
· The student should be in their junior or senior year during
the 2015 – 2016 academic year. <br>
<br>
· 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. <br>
<br>
· The amount of the support will be $7500 plus up to $1500
for a visit to the Lab. <br>

· The student will submit a brief description of the project
at the end of the assistantship <br>
