Undergraduate
- Joseph F. Nelson Undergraduate Research Mentorship: This program is designed to encourage the development of a mentoring relationship between undergraduate students and SDSU faculty. The program provides a mentorship (scholarship) of $2,500 for summer study involving original, scholarly activity as described in the guidelines of the program. The awards will be competitive and based on the design of the proposed studies and likelihood of meeting the objectives of the applicant. This program is only for SDSU students.
- National Programs: There are a variety of national programs that can be used to fund undergraduate research. The NSF REU is the main program. I am currently involved in an REU at SDSU named Security Printing and Anti-counterfeit Technologies (SPACT). We have two open spots per year for the next few years. Check the web site for details on the program.
- Multiple submitted proposals have designated funding for undergraduate research. Therefore, if the opportunities listed above do not apply, there is still a chance that funding is available.
Graduate
- Teaching Assistantship: The Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry normally starts beginning graduate students on teaching assistantships in which the graduate student has a significant teaching load (normally instructing laboratory sections). Acceptance to graduate studies in the Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry at SDSU is normally the only requirement for securing a teaching assistantship. Contact Logue or the Department of Chemistry, Biochemistry and Physics for further information.
- Research Assistantship: This type of assistantship is contingent on external funding. Logue has multiple submitted proposals in which funding is designated for graduate students.
Postdoctoral
- Multiple submitted proposals have designated funding for postdoctoral research personnel. Funding for these positions is contingent on the agency awarding funding for the project.
- Other opportunities to work with Logue are available through a number of centers which Logue is a member.
