【 摘 要 】

The United State Department of Energy (DOE) National Laboratory Facilities offer multiple opportunities for graduate students to participate in ongoing research efforts. Programs involve students at all phases of their academic careers, including potential graduate students who participate at the facilities while undergraduates. The graduate students often have opportunities to conduct research for extended periods using the unique facilities not normally available on campuses. The overall purposes of involving such students are to provide access to research that is not available elsewhere and to encourage young talented students to continue their research careers focussed on areas of interest to the Department of Energy. The program offered by Argonne National Laboratory, a major DOE research facility, are presented and include appointments for students from U.S. higher education institutions as well as opportunities for students from foreign countries who are currently in graduate school. Such students typically complete all or part of their thesis in collaboration with Argonne scientists and engineers along with professors from their universities.
