    REU meet-ups; Post where you are going and meet your peers

    It is through CCI, sir (essentially SULI, but open to community college students). I chose a project in the physics division (based on what I read of the project, I believe it falls under accelerator physics).

    REU meet-ups; Post where you are going and meet your peers

    Not exactly an REU, but I received a DOE internship at Argonne. Anyone else going there?

    LaTeX Creating Latex Tables with Units Beneath Parameters

    I'm by no means an expert, but I'm pretty sure you would have to specify text wrapping on each column when you introduce the table. Someone please correct me if there is a simpler method.

    Has Anyone Heard Back from DOE SULI 2012 Internships?

    Hint: Read through the thread again, and then tell me who he is. :wink:

    Has Anyone Heard Back from DOE SULI 2012 Internships?

    No, I definitely received an offer. I've already chosen the project I will be working on and signed the necessary paperwork. It's official, no doubt about that.

    Has Anyone Heard Back from DOE SULI 2012 Internships?

    Yes, that would be me. :biggrin: From what I've heard from people who were accepted previous years, the offer dates really fall within a rather large range depending on the lab, so I'd say there's definitely still time for many an offer to go out.

    Overcoming Struggles in Physics as a 4th Year Major

    I'm still a second year physics major, so keep that in mind when you read my advice. People learn at different rates--some faster than others--and physics especially comes much easier to some than others. If you need additional help or practice, it's up to you to take the initiative. If you're...

    First Internship (advice anyone?)

    Sorry for the delayed response, I've been terribly busy lately. My research project is in the physics division and has to with the fabrication/processing of a superconducting niobium resonant cavity. I'm not really familiar with the technology, but I've started reading up on some of the...

    First Internship (advice anyone?)

    DOE = Department of Energy. I got my internship through a DOE sponsored program (CCI) and it doesn't start until this Summer. Where is yours?

    First Internship (advice anyone?)

    Hey guys. :biggrin: I just recently was offered my first research internship as an undergrad (community college student, so it's been difficult) at Argonne through the DOE. I just thought I'd ask if anyone else has interned at Argonne (or has held DOE internships at other national labs)...

    Schools A Community College student seeks advice.

    Hello, people of science. I am a community college physics major finishing up my first year with the intention of transferring to a four-year college and, much further down the road, pursuing an advanced degree. I will be taking the last of the physics courses my school offers over the summer...
