Description:
Southern California Earthquake Center’s SOURCES program offers a remotely-mentored research experience to college students nationwide. Regardless of geographic location or availability of local researchers, SOURCES interns will gain valuable research experience and participate in the SCEC collaboratory.

SOURCES interns will benefit from:

-A remotely-mentored research internship for undergraduate students unable to travel due to COVID-19 and also for students who otherwise may not be able to participate in onsite research due to other factors (other obligations, family factors, disability, etc.).

-Professional development webinars coordinated by SCEC (e.g. writing abstract, creating posters, developing an elevator pitch).

-A weekly student stipend of $700 per week, for a minimum of 6 weeks and a maximum of 12 weeks. The length of the program will be determined by the mentor based on project needs.

-Possible funding for research project needs (software, equipment, datasets, etc.).

-Possible support for graduate students who co-mentor the intern.

-An opportunity for students to present their research at a professional conference when possible.

-The opportunity to visit the mentor’s institution when possible.
