SoNIC Summer Research Workshop
For the SoNIC Summer Research Workshop, a program designed to increase the number of underrepresented students pursuing and achieving a doctoral degree in computer science.
This year, SoNIC will be held at Cornell University in Ithaca, NY on July 24, 2023 – July 28, 2023.
All meals and lodging expenses are covered. In addition, a $1,000 stipend for a student’s successful completion of the program…which can be used for their travel expenditures (see flyer below). During SoNIC, you will:
- Learn about cutting-edge computing research and participate in lab tours.
- Work with a faculty mentor from the Cornell Bowers College of Computing and Information Science.
- Connect with peers and engage in a skill-building research project.
- Discover career pathways in computing and information science.
- Understand the process and benefits of obtaining a graduate degree in computing and information science.
- Talk with current Ph.D. students about their academic, professional, and personal experience.
Applicant Information:
- The research workshops will focus on robotics and assistive technology. Applicants are not required to have prior experience in working with robotics or assistive technology.
- Students who are pursuing an undergraduate or master’s degree in the computer science or engineering field are eligible to apply for the SoNIC program.
- Although SoNIC is open to all students, we are encouraging the participation of students who identify as underrepresented in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics field.
- At this time, we are only accepting applications from students in the US and Puerto Rico.
- SoNIC applications must be submitted by February 17, 2023. Applicants will be notified of their status by April 7, 2023.
- Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit their questions to our Cornell Bowers CIS Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion team at dei-office@cis.cornell.edu.
