SURF: Announcements of Opportunity
Below are Announcements of Opportunity posted by Caltech faculty and JPL technical staff for the SURF program. Each AO indicates whether or not it is open to non-Caltech students. If an AO is NOT open to non-Caltech students, please DO NOT contact the mentor. Announcements of Opportunity are posted as they are received. Please check back regularly for new AO submissions!
Remember: This is just one way that you can go about identifying a suitable project and/or mentor. Click here for more tips on finding a mentor. Announcements for external summer programs are listed here.
*Students applying for JPL projects should complete a SURF@JPL application instead of a "regular" SURF application.
*Students pursuing opportunities at JPL must be U.S. citizens or U.S. permanent residents.

| Background: | In our current theoretical chemistry research, we are focused on two research areas, one involving the interchange of chemical and mechanical energy in rotary and linear biological motors, motors which are ubiquitous in nature. In a second research area, we examine theoretically ultra fast electron transfer reactions, studying not only the population changes but also the quantum information available from studying the coherence in the wave mechanical observations. | ||||||||
