Get a glimpse into Applied Physics research at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem
We are now accepting applications for Summer 2025!
The Applied Physics Institute welcomes 2025 applications for a summer research program for undergraduate students:
• June 3-July 31, 2025
• Weekly stipend of approximately $250 included
• Dormitory housing included
• Airfare and health insurance not included
Why do an REU at the Applied Physics Institute?
Spend your summer in a stimulating environment with peers who are equally excited by Physics and Electrical Engineering and delve into cutting-edge research while personally mentored by a leading researcher in the field.
You’ll immerse yourself in world-leading research in a particular field of interest, tackle problems, both theoretical and experimental (with hands-on experience) and gain deeper understanding, draft results and present them to your peers at the program’s conclusion.
And that’s not all! In your spare time, you’ll enjoy the vibrant city of Jerusalem in the company of other international students in the Mathematics at HUJI, including a series of social and academic activities tailored just for you.
Potential areas of research:
- Quantum Information, Simulation and Sensing
- Ultrafast lasers
- Nano-Photonics
- Quantum computing and optimization
- Photonic electron acceleration
- Advanced imaging
- Photonic devices
- Optoelectronic computing
- Nano-quantum engineering
- Spintronics
- Quantum sensors
- Microelectronics and computer architecture
Eligibility: Applied Physics, Physics or Electrical Engineering majors entering their final year of undergraduate studies, or recent B.A. graduates.
Application: The following documents should be submitted in PDF format to Reu.Applied.Physics@mail.huji.ac.il
• A one-page statement of mathematical interests
• Academic transcript (applicants must demonstrate familiarity with core undergraduate subjects)
• Two academic letters of recommendation
Note: The two letters should be submitted directly by the recommenders to the email address listed above. Both applicants and recommenders should include the applicant’s name in the email subject line.
We will begin looking at applications starting March 1, 2025 - but applications are welcome after that as well.
