Show Summer Research Program Offered to U Entrants A unique opportunity for graduating high school seniors to become involved involv-ed in university research is offered through the Third Annual Summer Jobs in Research Program of the Division of Materials Science Sci-ence and Engineering at the University of Utah. Students will be hired for full-time work in ongoing on-going research projects under un-der professors and graduate gradu-ate students, according to Dr. Joseph D. Andrade, assistant as-sistant professor at the U of U. The students selected selec-ted must be planning to attend the U in Fall 1971. Work will commence June 21 and conclude September Septem-ber 3. "Researcn will center on technical aspects of mat. erials science and engineering engin-eering projects and cover such areas as blood polymers, poly-mers, membrane diffusion, recycling of ceramic wast- es and material structure," said Dr. Andrade. He points out that the research is vital in scientific discovery disco-very and does not follow the "cookbook recipe" type of science projects. Participating students will also have the opportunity oppor-tunity to attend lectures and discussions offered in a companion program of the National Science Foun. dation being held on campus cam-pus for high school juniors. jun-iors. "All interested students are invited to attend the lectures associated with the NSF program, though research participation will be limited to selected participants," par-ticipants," Dr. Andrade said. Interested students should attend a meeting on Wednesday, April 7 at 7.80 p.m. or Saturday, April 1.0 at 9:30 a.nl. in 2049 Merrill Mer-rill Eneineering Building at the U of U to fill out application forms and meet the participating faculty.
