Summer Internship Opportunities

Consider applying for a PI4-IMA Summer Internships this summer!

These are supported by the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA) and organized by the Program for Interdisciplinary and Industrial Internships at Illinois (PI4), a successful internship program for graduate students run by the Mathematics Department at the University of Illinois over the past six years, with support from the NSF. With the new funding from the IMA, we are pleased to broaden the availability of internships to students from other institutions.

Four Internships are available for mathematics graduate students in Summer 2019. The internships will be hosted by companies and scientific labs in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. This is a great thing for all students to consider, whether or not you are interested in non-academic work.

Coding skills and soft skills training will be provided as a part of the program. Interns will be placed in pairs where possible to ensure a productive and enjoyable internship experience.

The program begins with a 12 day intensive workshop on linear algebra and computational skills, focusing on Python and R. Prior coding experience is not required. 

May 15-July 15, 2019.

For more information, and to apply (by March 17, 2019), please visit the PI4-IMA Summer Internships website. 

Women and underrepresented US minority students are strongly encouraged to apply.

Program Organizers: Yuliy Baryshnikov, Lee DeVille, Vera Hur, Richard Laugesen
