The WIMS REU is a unique and exciting summer residential program that
offers six to ten qualified, undergraduate, minority students the chance
to work with outstanding graduate students and nationally and internationally
recognized faculty who are leading the WIMS research programs in MEMS
and Microsystems. The REU program provides exciting in-depth research
experiences, develops written and oral technical communication skills,
and enhances the understanding of professional ethics. It also teaches
safe and effective use of processing equipment and software tools for
simulation and design of MEMS and microcircuits. Included in the program
are ancillary activities such as tours, social gatherings, and workshops
to motivate and help prepare students to pursue graduate study. The REU
student receives a salary stipend, lodging and meals, and reasonable travel
expenses from home to a WIMS location as part of their financial package.

WUGR is an excellent opportunity for talented, motivated undergraduate
students to work with outstanding graduate students and world-leading
MEMS and WIMS faculty. Each undergraduate is given a specific research
project with clearly defined research goals and desired outcomes, and
learns the science, engineering, and application benefits for that project.
In addition, each undergraduate's project may directly benefit the graduate
student mentor's thesis and research project. The undergraduate student
is expected to prepare a final written report of his/her project's research
experiences, results, and outcomes. This program may be a comprehensive
summer-only program, or it may continue throughout the academic year with
a part-time, less intensive effort. Each successful student receives salary
support to work on research projects critical to the WIMS ERC.

The Integrated Microsystems Enterprise (IME) is a student-run organization
that is developing a data acquisition system-the Transportable Research
Instrument (TRIcorder) System. Organized like a real company, this undergraduate
research program is giving students leadership and technical coordination
experience rivaling research and development firms. IME began as an electrical
engineering-oriented enterprise, but has since grown to include a variety
of disciplines and utilize more than 20 students.
