NIST PREP

The National Institute of Standards and Technology Professional Research Experience Program (NIST PREP) is a program to provide laboratory experience and financial support to undergraduates, graduate students, postdocs, and faculty. George Washington University and SURA have partnered with NIST to support this program.

The GWU-PREP program is a five-year collaboration between GWU and SURA with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) campus in Gaithersburg, Maryland. GWU-PREP provides research opportunities at NIST to students, faculty, research staff, and postdoctoral researchers at GWU and within the SURA university consortium. GWU-PREP provides financial assistance in the form of a monthly stipend or hourly wage to eligible students, staff, postdoctoral researchers, and faculty.

If you are interested in participating in the NIST PREP program, please contact Carolyn Wilson, SURA’s Special Projects Manager.
