Attend our session to learn about the Schmidt Academy for Software Engineering and how you can apply for a Schmidt Scholar position. We are only seeking graduating HMC, Caltech & Berkeley seniors (Spring, 2024) to apply as Schmidt Scholars. You will also meet up with Professor Mike Gurnis, Director for Schmidt Academy for Software Engineering, Donnie Pinkston, a Schmidt Software Academy Instructor, and several current Schmidt Scholars.
The Schmidt Academy for Software Engineering provides a unique training opportunity for recent undergraduate students with strong software engineering interest to advance discovery. Through their work with the Schmidt Academy, Schmidt Scholars will transform software engineering practices and enable research groups to pursue new scientific and technological advances that would not be feasible otherwise.
Schmidt Scholars will participate in a bootcamp in software engineering and will be embedded within a Caltech or Carnegie Institution of Science research group for one to two-year periods, supporting innovative science and facilitating computational approaches across campus. Upon completing the Academy, Schmidt Scholars will have excellent career opportunities both in industry and via graduate school. The bootcamp will be run by and the scholars mentored by a Schmidt Academy Instructor, who will also interface directly with the Principal Investigators to help develop projects and ensure progress.
Schmidt Scholars will be employed as Caltech research staff members with industry-competitive salary and benefits.
Harvey Mudd CS faculty Katherine Breeden (kb@cs.hmc.edu) and Yi-Chieh (Jessica) Wu (yjw@g.hmc.edu) can also address questions you might have. Mike Gurnis (gurnis@gps.caltech.edu) and Donnie Pinkston (donnie@cms.caltech.edu) are also available to answer your questions.
