For students who have taken CS232: Nvidia internship opportunity

[Victor Norman]

Students who have taken CS232,

I received this email yesterday from a friend, Dr. Gord Vreugdenhil, who works at Nvidia -- and gave the first CSx95 talk this semester. He is looking for another student for a lucrative summer internship job at Nvidia -- especially a student in an under-represented group in CS (AHANA or female, e.g.). See his email below:


Hi all.

Nvidia is embarking on a number of initiatives to encourage diversity within
computing sciences and within Nvidia more specifically.  As part of that, my
group may be able to offer an additional undergrad internship this summer to
a promising student and we'd be particularly interested in supporting a student
in any under-represented group within computing sciences.

I'm specifically letting you know about this since my daughter Valerie will be
doing an Nvidia internship this summer in the group I am in and it might be easier
to deal with learning curves, etc. (particularly given Covid) with two students coming
out of the same program.

This would be systems oriented role involving concurrency and "close to
the hardware" programming.  Comfort with OS concepts, hardware basics,
and exposure to compiler concepts would be useful.  This is not an AI/ML/GPU
role.

Nvidia's internships are a minimum of 12 weeks and include travel and housing
allowances in addition to a very generous hourly rate.  Ability to legally work
in the US is required.

The normal internship deadline for Nvidia is closed, but we think we might
be able to get something to work out yet.  This is by no means certain.

In any case, if you have any students that might be interested, you can give
them my Nvidia email (gvreugdenhil at nvidia.com<mailto:gvreugdenhil at nvidia.com>) and have them contact me
directly and enclose a resume.  We'll see if something works out.

Let me know if you have any questions.  Thanks!

Gord
