The Computer Science Department at the University of Texas at Dallas will conduct a ten-week summer research program funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) for ten undergraduates from May 20 to July 28, 2022. The focus is on "software safety and reliability," however the technology skills learned by the students have general applicability to research and practice in their future studies.
In addition to work on assigned research projects at UTD, special seminars by industry advisors will be arranged to help the students better understand how software safety and reliability is adopted in practice for real-life applications. This also gives students a chance to directly communicate with practitioners to receive a first-hand account of the work environments and lifestyles in the industry.
Eligible applicants are those who have an interest in pursuing a graduate education, are currently enrolled in an accredited undergraduate institution, and are U.S. citizens or permanent residents. Incoming seniors will be given preference, but sophomores and juniors with strong academic records will also be considered. Special welcome is extended to students from underrepresented groups (women, minorities, and persons with disabilities) and academic institutions with limited research opportunities. Selected participants will receive a scholarship ($6,000 USD) to conduct research with a faculty member in the Computer Science Department at UTD.
The deadline to submit applications is Tuesday, March 15, 2022.
