UNDERGRADUATE OPPORTUNITIES

We are committed to sustaining a vibrant, diverse, inclusive, and supported undergraduate community at SSL!

Paid undergraduate student opportunities at SSL are offered via direct hires at hourly rates. See current job listings below from our Handshake feed. SSL is also a proud participant in UC Berkeley’s Undergraduate Research Apprentice Program (URAP). Check out our list of URAP offerings prior to the start of each semester and apply! If you are a community college student, please consider applying to ASSURE, our summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program. For all other inquiries, please contact SSL Student Engagement Manager Dan Zevin at dzevin@ssl.berkeley.edu.

ANNOUNCING SSL’S NEW URSA MINOR APPRENTICE PROGRAM!

Are you a current UC Berkeley sophomore that qualifies for financial aid? Are you interested in getting hands-on training in Systems, Mechanical, and/or Electrical Engineering for space missions? If you answered yes to both of these questions, then check out SSL’s new URSA Minor Apprentice Program!

Where to Meet SSL Researchers and Engineers!

Networking with SSL’s researchers and engineers sometimes leads to student positions at the lab. Perhaps the best possible regular chance to rub shoulders with some of our team is at the weekly 290B Space Sciences Seminar Series held every Tuesday from 1:00-2:10pm during the fall and spring semesters in 325 Physics South Hall on the UC Berkeley campus. To get the complete schedule and/or to join the group listserv for regular reminders, please contact SSL’s Chadi Salem at salem@ssl.berkeley.edu.  Another such networking opportunity is the weekly Center for Integrative Planetary Science (CIPS) seminar held every Wednesday starting at 1:10pm in 131 Campbell Hall, with pizza served beforehand at 12:45pm. More information, including the current schedule, can be found here.

Not finding anything here that interests you? If so, please fill out our undergraduate intake form and we’ll do our best to get back to you if a new SSL opportunity that fits your interests and skill set presents itself.  NOTE: Please be ready to upload a PDF of your resume prior to completing the form.
