Undergraduate students can investigate the nexus between artificial intelligence and physics for eight weeks at no cost to them through the NSF REU in Physics and Artificial Intelligence at the NSF AI Planning Institute. Students can work on projects that use artificial intelligence (AI) to physics challenges at all sizes, from the grandest cosmological scales to the smallest subatomic ones. Projects like examining galaxies from the Dark Energy Survey, searching for the Higgs Boson at the Large Hadron Collider, and applying machine learning to understand the principles of cellular biophysics are a few examples.
Graduate students, postdocs, and faculty members will mentor NSF REU students. They will have a vibrant social scene that includes graduate students from the mathematical, physics, biological, and chemical disciplines right now. Students will also go on field trips to nearby Pittsburgh monuments and events.
This program has complete funding. Throughout the program, students will earn a substantial salary in addition to reimbursement for travel and lodging costs.
