RECA INTERNSHIP PROGRAM 2021
The proposed period for the first edition of this internship program is the summer of 2021. The dates are flexible by mutual agreement between the supervisor and the student, but the research aims to be completed in a range of approximately 10 weeks. Therefore, full dedication to research by the student is expected during this period.
ADDITIONAL ACTIVITIES
Although the research project assigned to each student will be priority of this program, there will be some additional activities to complement this research experience.
OBSERVATION TIME
Students will have the opportunity to remotely monitor real-time observations made by professional telescopes around the world.
PROFESSIONAL TALKS
Weekly, students will receive virtual talks on specific astronomy topics given by world experts where emphasis will be placed on the path of the researcher.
PERMANENT SUPPORT
The members of the committee will be available to support students in conceptual doubts, programming or any other tool that facilitates the correct development of the research project.
PUBLICATION IN ASTROBITOS
The selected students will have the opportunity to publish the results of their research in the Astronomy Portal: ASTROBITOS
PRESENTATION AT SYMPOSIUM
Opportunity to present the results of the research at an event organized by RECA in order to improve the ability to disseminate scientific results.
