Studies. (Students enrolled in an advanced program with an emphasis or

internship work. 

Applications should consist of a cover letter, a resume or cv, and two
letters of recommendation.  Selection of the award recipient will be
based on availability of a compatible internship and the applicant's
present abilities and potential.
