2010 - 2011 Undergraduate Research & Mentoring Program


Paid Research Opportunities for Undergraduate Students

The Maseeh College of Engineering and Computer Science offers paid research opportunities through the Undergraduate Research and Mentoring Program for undergraduate students who are interested in electrical, mechanical, civil, environmental and computer engineering as well as computer science. The Maseeh College recognizes the importance of mentoring undergraduate students in the areas of cross-disciplinary research, graduate engineering education, and industry partnerships. Students who are accepted into this program will work one on one with Maseeh College faculty on a research project. The Undergraduate Research and Mentoring Program is sponsored in part by the Semiconductor Research Corporation Education Alliance.
