Research Opportunities

All research projects pertaining to SUPER will be based in Discovery Park, just four miles north of the main campus.

SUPER students will have office space in Discovery Park and access to all research facilities. They will be assigned a faculty mentor and can choose to perform research under one of our research areas or propose a research project of their own (check our website for other exciting research projects):

Bioinformatics

Characterization and testing of piezoelectric materials and devices

Computer architecture, memory systems, and parallel processing

Development and testing of advanced polymer based materials and composites

Embedded Computing

Low Power VLSI Design

Microwave and Antennas

Eligibility

Our program is oriented towards students who have completed at least two years of study in:

Computer Science

Computer Engineering

Electrical Engineering

Mechanical Engineering

Materials Science and Engineering

A cumulative grade point average of 3.5 or higher at the end of the Fall 2011 semester is required. Students who will graduate at the end of the Spring 2012 semester are not eligible for this program.
