Research Opportunites for Undergraduates

There is routine involvement of undergraduate students in environmental engineering research projects. Students can work part-time during the academic year, and depending on availability, there are full-time employment opportunities during the summer months. Activities depend on the project and faculty member involved, but they include everything from data collection in the field, to data analysis, to modeling and programming.

  • Undergraduate Opportunities
         – Application period is open for the summer 2010 research program
            Program dates: May 27 – July 30, 2010
            REU information and application

Hands-on experience is valuable because it:

  • introduces students to the excitement and fun of research

  • promotes the ability to think independently

  • exposes students to computer, lab, and field instrumentation and methods

  • provides an inside view of graduate student life

  • helps develop career goals

  • serves as a resume 'point of emphasis'
