Can I work temporarily (i.e., on a sabbatical)?
People doing nanotechnology work, or wanting to do so, have inquired about visiting us for an extended period. Write us if you are interested in exploring this further. Presenting a plan of what you’d like to accomplish is highly recommended.

Do you have a summer intern program?
Yes. Contact our Human Resources department via an e-mail. Include your background and some idea of what you’d be interested in doing.
