Summer (Research) Opportunities/Internships

If you are thinking about a career in mathematics (where a "career" is not strictly-speaking "academia"), you should probably consider a summer program. Here are some options:

ACADEMIA/RESEARCH RELATED

"MATH CAMP" COUNSELOR

NON-ACADEMIA RELATED

    • Internships at the NSA. The National Security Agency loves mathematicians! If you're thinking about a job outside academia and/or in government, you should really consider applying. These applications will be due VERY EARLY (quite frequently, you want your application submitted in the fall semester before the summer in question--security clearances take time!). Again, you typically have to be an American citizen or US resident in order to apply.

    • The Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM). This group sponsors various industry-based summer programs for undergraduates. Also worthy of note: historically they are welcome to both US and foreign applicants.
