Summer Undergraduate Research (SURE)
The goal of this 10-week summer research program is to offer enrolled SSU undergraduate students the research experience opportunities to work alongside and interact with SSU faculty, researchers, and graduate students.
Stipend: May vary depending on available funding.
Duration: Jun-Aug (10 weeks).
Selection Process: Students are selected by the faculty advisors. Please contact an EE faculty for more information.
Requirements: All participants must be available to attend the introductory session, weekly meetings on Wednesday at noon for one hour, and the final poster presentations.
Outcome: At the end of the program, each participating student must submit a poster and present a demonstration. Participants are also required to complete the final evaluation form.
Certificate: Upon completion, each individual participant will receive a certificate of accomplishment from the Electrical Engineering Program at SSU.
Summer Undergraduate Research Experience For Transfer Students (SURETS)
The goal of this 10-week summer research program is to offer undergraduate transfer students from junior colleges research experience opportunities to work alongside and interact with SSU faculty and senior EE students. Participating students will be part of the Summer Research Program at SSU and will be involved in ongoing innovative research projects.
Stipend: May vary depending on available funding.
Duration: Jun-Aug (10 weeks).
Selection Process: Students are selected by the program coordinator at their own institution. Preference will be given to students who have not decided where to transfer to and are considering electrical engineering.
Outcome: At the end of the program, each participating student must submit a poster and present a demonstration. Participants are also required to complete the final evaluation form.
Certificate: Upon completion, each individual participant will receive a certificate of accomplishment from the Electrical Engineering Program at SSU.
Summer Research Experience For High School Students
The Engineering Department at SSU is committed to mentoring the next generation of engineers and encouraging a diverse STEM workforce. The EE program continues to hosts many high school students each summer. Mentored by the engineering Faculty and students, participants are given the opportunity to work in one of the Research Laboratories and learn about exciting projects.
Students who may be interested in this program should review the Senior Design Projects and provide a one-page letter of interest addressing the following questions, briefly:
- Which project is interesting to you and why?
- Why are you interested in the engineering summer research at SSU?
- Which Research Lab would you like to work with and why?
Please submit your questions or the the letter of interest to Engineering before May 10th.
