The
CSIRO Space & Astronomy Undergraduate Vacation Scholarship Program
is designed to provide students with the opportunity to work on
real-world problems in a leading research organisation. Each scholar
undertakes a research project under the supervision of a CASS staff
member. Scholarships are for 10 weeks from late November to early
February, with students this time based at the Sydney, Perth, Parkes,
and Tidbinbilla sites. A highlight of the program is the opportunity
for the students to travel to the Australia Telescope Compact Array
and carry out their own observing program, with the
opportunity to have a tour from top to bottom of an ATCA antenna!
