We are seeking a qualified graduate student interested in nanofabrication research to develop a new method of nanoimprint lithography that is being pursued in the group. The student should be admitted as a graduate student at MIT (not necessarily in the EECS department) and have experience, either in coursework or in research, with nanofabrication.
To arrange an interview, please email Cindy Gibbs with your resume and a cover letter stating your interest in this position.
