All students meeting the following requirements are invited to apply:

Students who are considering this opportunity are advised to preliminarily contact Prof. Andrea Terzi (aterzi@fc.edu), so you can find out more about what the project entails. Students who will confirm their interest will be requested to submit their application, including a brief letter stating the reasons for their interest and describing their intended project in a two-page research outline.
