Inorganic Chemistry Exchange – Gain Research Experience!

Inorganic Chemistry Exchange Logo

Are you a chemistry student interested in gaining research experience?

The Inorganic Chemistry Exchange (ICE) program offers summer employment opportunities to undergraduate students in chemistry, who will have completed the equivalent of two or three full years of study as of May 2017. Up to 7 qualified candidates from across Canada are awarded employment as a summer research assistant at an institution other than their own, in the laboratory of one of these ICE faculty members:

  • Mario Bieringer – University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB
  • Johanna Blacquiere – University of Western Ontario, London, ON
  • Andrew Grosvenor – University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK
  • Vlad Michaelis/Jon Veinot, University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB
  • Eric Price, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK
  • Martin Stillman – University of Western Ontario, London, ON
  • Jennifer Love – University of British Columbia, Vancouver, BC

The specific interests of the faculty participants vary considerably – there is a whole periodic table out there! Projects will range from synthesis and catalysis to materials science to bioinorganic chemistry. The ICE Program will wrap up with a workshop for all participating students and faculty at the University of Saskatchewan on August 17-18, 2017.

APPLICATION DEADLINE: Friday, November 4, 2016 ★
