SHIP: SMALL Honors Internship Program
-
 Studies have shown that students who participate as a member
of a research team are significantly more likely to pursue
an engineering education and ultimately aspire to a career
in engineering.
-
In SMALL's outreach activities, a key pedagogical challenge
is to motivate young students to become multidisciplinary
engineers.
-
This challenge will be addressed through the PI's SMALL
(Sensors and MicroActuators Learning Lab) Honors Internship
Program (SHIP).
-
As part of the activities for the funded NSF projects, the
PI started to operate the SHIP program in his SMALL lab by
integrating existing on-campus outreach programs:
- BEAM for K-12 minorities
- INR for K-12 minorities
- CSTEP for college
minorities
- International exchange or
visiting students.
- Undergraduate students
