Educating Tomorrow's Technology Leaders for Career Success
CAE features a large and diverse number of REU opportunities in funded and unfunded current projects.
Based on students’ interest, the ideal approach is direct contact with the faculty. The graduate brochure, among others, lists the areas of interest of all CAE faculty members (visit: https://umshare.miami.edu/web/wda/engineeringfiles/CAE/CAEGrad101413.pdf) The next slides offer a sample of possible projects in:
a) energy b) environment/waterc) materials d) Computer-aided engineering
