Physics majors Phillp Derrickson (center), Emilee Edmonds (right) and Preston Porter (left) have each been accepted to the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL)’s NS3 Nuclear Science Summer School at Michigan State University (MSU) this summer.
NS3 is for undergraduates and combines lectures, collaborative activities, peer networking and research mentoring to provide an immersive experience in the fields of nuclear science and nuclear astrophysics. The program runs from May 15 – 21 this year, with no cost to the students, who were selected through a competitive application process.
Notably, two of our alumni participated in the program during their time at IUSB: E-Lexus Thornton ’19 and Jeff Yoder ’20, so we’re confident that this year’s trio will have a fantastic experience.
