This summer school is targeted at upper-level undergraduate students and early-career graduate students enrolled in colleges and universities in the United States. Preference will be given to those enrolled in astronomy, astronomy-physics, or space-physics academic programs who have yet to take a formal course in basic plasma physics, and particularly to those whose current institution does not offer a course or course sequence in plasma physics or plasma astrophysics. Students with backgrounds historically underrepresented in STEM are especially encouraged to apply. There are no school fees; all lodging and meals will be provided, free of charge, to all selected students. Travel funding is also available. To apply, please fill out the application form below and arrange for one reference letter to be sent to GPAPSummerSchool2023@gmail.com using “[Applicant’s Last Name]: Reference Letter” as the subject line (e.g., Vlasov: Reference Letter). The application process opens Feb 1, 2023 and closes April 1, 2023.

For any questions about the school, please reach the organizing committee at GPAPSummerSchool2023@gmail.com
