Description
he Christopher Newport University Graduate Summer Workshop in Nuclear and Hadronic Physics (CNUGS) is the evolution of the long-running Hampton University’s HUGS program and will launch its expanded format beginning in 2026. This reimagined three-week summer workshop will continue HUGS’ and Jefferson Lab’s tradition of advanced training in fundamental nuclear and hadronic physics while introducing new curriculum elements in artificial intelligence, machine learning and data science, including an integrated AI/ML bootcamp and collaborative hackathon.
CNUGS is designed for nuclear and particle physics graduate students who have finished their coursework and have at least one year of research experience in these fields. Students who are well into a research project are also encouraged to apply. The program is simultaneously intensive, friendly, and casual. All lecturers are internationally renowned and leaders in their fields. Acceptance into the program is competitive, and a limited number of scholarships is available.
