The Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowship in
Information Technology (SURF-IT) through Calit2 at the University
of California, Irvine (UCI), provides a unique 10-week summer research
opportunity for UCI undergraduates to become immersed in IT-related
research and applications. Participants will have the opportunity
to choose from a variety of challenging research projects.
Under the personal guidance of a UCI faculty mentor, students will
gain first-hand experience and training in state-of-the-art facilities
and techniques. A series of seminars will provide opportunities
to build knowledge and enhance dialogue about telecommunications
and information technology systems and applications. At the conclusion
of the program, students will be prepared to share their research
accomplishments by presenting their findings at the SURF-IT Poster
Session and Closing Reception.
This program is designed to help students develop the knowledge
and skills that will propel them into graduate studies or careers
in the various multidisciplinary fields of telecommunications and
information technology.
The California Institute for Telecommunications
and Information Technology (Calit2)
Information Technology has accelerated advances in our communities,
