Greetings, 

Attached is the information regarding the Summer Internship Program 2009 
(SIP).  Below are details about the program.  It is preferred that 
applicants have the prior support of the proposed CBS supervisor, who can 
be from any CBS department, and preferably complete the outline of the 
proposed project (Page 6 of form SIP-09). 

The deadline for applications to the Summer Internship Program is Feb. 16, 
2009 for funding in May 2009. 



To facilitate the "matching" of potential students and supervisors for the 
SIP, we have attached an updated contact list for all locations. 
Applicants may email/phone the contact person for the location at which 
they are interested in working.  The contact person will then try to match 
up the applicant's expertise with a supervisor/position in their location. 
  

Specifically, some applicants do not have a CBS supervisor when they send 
in their application.  In order to ?match up? applicants with potential 
supervisors, R&D (HO) will look at the applicant?s preferred location and 
their areas of interest.  We will then reach the contact person to see if 
anyone is interested in supervising a student at their location.   

If there is a successful match, the supervisor completes pg. 5 of the SIP 
application providing an overview of the project highlighting the 
resources available to the candidate. 

On pg. 6 of the SIP application, the supervisor should describe the 
objective and approach of the project and its relevance to the goals of 
CBS. 

Regards, Elaine
