Dear Students,

I am pleased to announce that applications for the NSF REU Site on “Engineering for Bouncing Back” hosted by Oregon State University are now being solicited. The website and application forms are live and open for undergraduate applicants interested in interdisciplinary research on the topic of building resilient communities.

Please take a look at this website https://engineering.oregonstate.edu/reu for more information about the program.

Please note the following important dates:

• REU Program will run from June 19 to August 25, 2023. Students have to be able to attend the entire period.
• Application deadline: March 15, 2023
• Applicants will be notified of their admission status via email by April 15, 2023.

Eligibility Criteria:

• GPA of 3.0 or above
• Must be U.S. Citizen or Permanent Resident
• Must have at least one quarter or semester remaining to graduate after the program
• Students from underrepresented communities, community colleges, and institutions with limited research opportunities are highly encouraged to apply

Greetings Students!

We are excited to announce that applications are open for the Molecular Engineering Materials Center (MEM-C) Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates and the Clean Energy Bridge to Research (CEBR) Summer Program!

Applications for both programs are due February 15, 2023. Please share this information and the attached fliers with your community.

University of Washington’s Molecular Engineering Materials Center (MEM-C) aims to accelerate the development of future energy conversion, information processing, and sensing technologies through design, discovery, processing, and application of complex electronic and photonic materials. The summer REU program is focused on exposing veterans and under-represented minorities to a viable and relevant career pathway focused on materials and energy research. Students will learn about relevant, state of the art content in future energy conversion, information processing, and sensing technologies through design, discovery, processing, and application of complex electronic and photonic materials. For more information on the program and how to apply, please visit: http://uwmemc.org/education/programs/reu/

Clean Energy Bridge to Research (CEBR) is a summer research program sponsored Continue reading →

Good afternoon,

My name is Robin Nelson, and I work for the NSF-funded Natural Hazards Engineering Research Infrastructure’s (NHERI) Educational Community Outreach (ECO) at the University of Texas at San Antonio.

NHERI REU PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Each year 11 NHERI experimental engineering or social science sites recruit 33 undergraduate students from various undergraduate degrees in engineering, computer science, architecture, and social science to participate in undergraduate natural hazards research.

This year we want to share this great opportunity for undergraduates interested in natural hazards research specific to earthquake, wind, tsunami, coastal engineering, data management, cyberinfrastructure, post-reconnaissance, simulation, and social science research. 

As you may know, NHERI REU students work with faculty and graduate students to conduct research during an NSF-funded ten-week summer experience at one of NHERI’s 11 sites:  Continue reading →

Attention Undergrad Students,

NHERI REU program overview. Each year, NHERI network facilities host 3 undergraduates to participate in natural hazards research, studying ways to mitigate damage from earthquakes, tsunamis, windstorms and hurricanes — in fields that include coastal engineering, data management, cyberinfrastructure, post-event reconnaissance, simulation and modeling, and social science research. Typical student majors include engineering, computer science, architecture, public policy, and social science.

During the ten-week, NSF-funded, summer experience, NHERI REU students work with faculty and graduate students to conduct research at one of NHERI’s 11 sites:
·         The Wall of Wind at Florida International University

·         The Advanced Technology for Large Structural Systems (ATLSS) Engineering Research Center at Lehigh University

·         The O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory at Oregon State University

·         The NHERI SimCenter at the University of California Berkley Continue reading →

Hello Undergraduates!

I am a new assistant professor with a joint appointment in CEE and Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences. My group is looking for motivated undergraduate students with an interest in microbiology to join our wet-lab research. Information about our group can be found on the lab website [fuhrmeisterlab.com]. Please see attached description for an opportunity to do research in our group through the SURE-EH (Supporting Undergraduate Research in Environmental Health) program.

If you are looking for opportunities to work with us outside of the SURE-EH program, please email me (efuhrm@uw.edu) with the following information:

• Why are you interested in joining the Fuhrmeister lab, in particular?
• What areas of research are you interested in?
• What previous experiences contribute to your current research interests?
• What skills are you interested in learning from a research position in the Fuhrmeister lab?
• Please attach current CV/resume and transcript

Priority will be given to students at the junior level. I look forward to hearing from some of you.
