Student Groups Program DescriptionThe Clemson University Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program in Mechanical Engineering will give you an opportunity to spend a summer working with a professor of Mechanical Engineering on a research project. You will gain valuable laboratory, analytical, and experimental skills as well as participate in a series of workshops and seminars specifically for REU participants. At the end of the program you will present yourwork in a poster session open to the university community. The goal of this program is to introduce undergraduate students to the research opportunities in academia. To be eligible for this program you must currently be a junior in an accredited Mechanical Engineering, Engineering Mechanics or Material Science program, be interested in research, and be able to spend 10 weeks during the summer of 2002 at Clemson University. Students selected to participate in this program will receive academic credit, room and board for the summer,a $2,500 stipend, and travel expenses. The participants will be matched with faculty members who will serve as research advisors for the 10 week program. All of the participants in the REU program will have access to the University's recreational facilities which include tennis, swimming, and water sports. Intramural competition is held in most sports. Some of the different areas that can be studied are listed below, along with the faculty member:
