Toulouse Scholar Exchange Program
Under the supervision of Dr. Jun Kono, French students are selected by the Research Center NEXT (Nano, Extreme Measurements, Theory) in Toulouse, and spend six months in Houston. APP Rice students spend six months in one of the Laboratories of NEXT. Funding is provided by the host in each case. For more information, contact Jun Kono at kono@rice.edu.
