Overview:
|
The
National Science Foundation and the Biological Systems Engineering
Department at Virginia Tech offers a unique opportunity
for ten undergraduate engineering students to conduct independent
research during a ten-week period under the guidance of
faculty in Land and Water Resources Engineering and Bioprocess
Engineering. The goal of the program is to provide a comprehensive
research experience, which will motivate students toward
a research career in engineering for biological systems.
Students will work in teams including faculty, graduate
students, and staff to conduct research and gain hands-on
experience in laboratory and field research methods. Typical
research projects are described later in this announcement.
