The Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering (ECE) at Florida International University (FIU) invites undergraduate students to apply its REU Site 2019 Summer program: “Security of Smart Things”. The program will run from May 28, 2019 to July 26, 2019 at FIU Campus in Miami, FL.

This is a great opportunity for undergraduate students (sophomores, juniors, non-graduating seniors) to engage in hands-on research activity under the supervision of a faculty mentor or a postdoctoral fellow in the ECE Department throughout the summer. Detailed information about the REU projects are available at: https://sst-reu.fiu.edu

Our site has been running since 2015 and involved 45 students so far with great successes.  The program includes weekly seminars/workshops, preparation of a research poster, individual academic career counseling, hands-on training with real equipment, and social activities in the Miami area.

Each participating undergraduate student will receive an award of $2000 per month in addition to FIU on-campus housing, meals, materials costs and a travel allowance of $600.
