North Carolina State University was awarded a $300,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Office of International Science and Engineering to conduct an International Research Experiences for Students program focused on soft matter research. Through this award, NCSU will facilitate a summer research exchange program where PhD students from North Carolina universities—including NCSU, Duke University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill—will conduct 10-week research internships at Dresden University of Technology and associated research institutes in Germany. The program aims to advance soft matter research and promote student professional development through conducting research abroad and participation in an academic cohort. Students will be selected to participate based on their preparation and research interest match, with a focus on promoting participation from underrepresented groups. During the summer research internships from August 1, 2023 through July 31, 2026, students will work on defined soft matter research projects under a host researcher and have a common academic program, including weekly research meetings and cultural excursions. The award supports the National Science Foundation's mission to strengthen international partnerships and scientific discovery globally through science and engineering research and education programs.
