Undergraduate Research Project

Many engineering faculty, both nationally and locally, have long recognized the significant educational benefits of undergraduate experiences in research environments. In fact, the National Science Foundation allocates a large sum of funding for their Research Experience for Undergraduates program. The project proposed here is designed to develop a self-supporting mechanism to make this opportunity available to a large percentage of the undergraduate engineering population at The University of Alabama. The concept and approach is briefly described on the following pages. The primary participating faculty are listed below:
