  1. Undergraduate Research Opportunities September 19, 2012

  2. Introduction/WelcomeCollege of Engineering • Dean, Dr. James Tien • Associate Dean, Dr. Helena Solo-Gabriele • Director of Career Services, Ann Helmers

  3. Welcome and a Few Words • Many opportunities – find a research mentor. Talk to students about labs. • Some opportunities are volunteer (forms), through course credit, or paid hourly. • Prestigious opportunities • NSF-REU (National Science Foundation – Research Experiences for Undergraduates) • NSF-GRFP (NSF – Graduate Research Fellowship Program) – Funds graduate school, due Nov. 13 http://www.nsf.gov/funding/pgm_summ.jsp?pims_id=6201

  4. The REU FAQ See Handout

  5. Once You Find an Opportunity • Sign up through UM Office of Undergraduate Research • Complete Required Training • Responsible Conduct of Research • Conflict of Interest and Disclosure • Other as required (ACUC, IRB, EHS…) For details and links: http://www.miami.edu/coe/index.php/coe/research/undergraduate_research_opportunities/
