Undergraduate researchers (UGRs)

Email Will if you are interested in: (1) Programming/software, help us process data and automate experiments; (2) Scaling technology, help us evaluate and design scalable materials technology; (3) Sustainability, help us understand sustainable material supply chains; (4) Lab bench work, help us do research.

We aim to involve UGRs in tangible research, provide outstanding learning experiences beyond the classroom, and increase the number of students (especially from underrepresented groups) pursuing MSE graduate degrees. Curious, dedicated and hardworking undergraduates looking for real research experience are always welcomed. UGRs work independently on a project related closely to that of a PhD Student or Postdoctoral Researcher, and give at least one oral presentation per quarter about their research. UGRs are paid hourly and/or receive course credits via MSE 199 Independent Study (letter graded or pass/fail); they are expected to work about 10 hours each week. MSE 199 gives one unit per three hours of weekly research. Students who want to take MSE 199 need to fill out the Proposal for Individual Study form (https://undergraduate.eng.uci.edu/forms).
