Hello,

I posted in the internship section but I also put my thread here as it's related.
I'm currently a French student in fifth year of higher education (physics/engineering) and I'd like to do an internship in a US lab for 3 months.

I currently have some opportunities :
- Brown : on the bat fly
- San Diego : on nano swim
- Santa Barbara : on turbidity currents
- Princeton : on radiatively driven flows or vortex (2 different labs)

Basically, all these subjects look great.
I wanted to do this internship on fluid mechanics applied to aero/astronautics but it's quite hard to find. I asked many faculty in Stanford but they lack space and can't host international students.

I don't really know which university to pick as all these subjects interest me. Princeton and Brown attracts me (especially Princeton) but I don't really know why as I can't really compare them.

What would you advise me to do ?

Thanks for your help
Regards

So it sounds like you are finishing a master's, right? Since your question requires a lot of specialized knowledge, I'm wondering if you have tried the Academic Guidance Forum on Physics Forums or Physics GRE Discussion Forums. You are likely to find more people on those forums with specific knowledge of the graduate departments at the schools you are considering.

Thanks for your answer. You must be right, I'll post there !

EDIT : BTW, yes by the end of the year I'll have a master degree.
