Please read the following instructions completely when preparing your application to the AMP.
Application Deadline: The priority deadline for the program is February 15th for Juniors who will begin the program at the end of Junior year or beginning of Senior year. Classes may be taken during Junior year, please inquire regarding your status in your current undergraduate major. However, due to substantial industry/national-lab demand for our students (many times the number of students we had the past 3 years), we are further expanding the program enrollment cap for next year on a rolling basis.

In order to complete the application process, you must send an email including the following:
1. Prepare a candidate’s statement

2. Submit names of two faculty members for recommendations
Request faculty you’ve studied with to be available to discuss your candidacy for the AMP with us as we may contact them regarding your application to the program. Often it is helpful if you provide them with your candidate statement and resume to review prior to being contacted by us.
