Post date: Jun 16, 2018 9:48:24 PM

The Interdisciplinary Computation & Modeling research Program for Undergraduate students (ICoMPUte) will start in September of 2018. It seeks to promote molecular modeling as a research tool in Chemistry and related fields. The program normally lasts two semesters, during which students work in interdisciplinary teams on projects involving wet lab experiments as well as molecular simulations, computer code development, and chemical physics theory & models.

ICoMPUte is managed by the Department of Chemistry at Brooklyn College. A small stipend is provided to qualified students. The program is supported by a generous grant from the National Science Foundation.

Applications are open for the Fall 2018-Spring 2019 session.

Students in laboratory sciences: Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, and Physics as well as Math, Computer Science and Engineering are encouraged to apply. Students interested in chemistry laboratory work are expected to have completed Organic Chemistry II laboratory. Applications from CUNY students not at Brooklyn College are encouraged.

For further questions and eligibility criteria please contact Prof. Emilio Gallicchio, egallicchio@brooklyn.cuny.edu
