Consider
every individual in your community having the ability to satisfy basic needs
for shelter, water, food and the ultimate…financial prosperity for themselves,
their family, and community. A new form
of keeping finances within a community.
A
switchover from an old system, to a new system.
There will be concurrent usages of both pre-existing models, and the new
model with the new model surpassing the existing financial model.
Prepare

Applications due by February 23, 2018 Summer Research Experience for Undergraduate Students at Carnegie Mellon University
PIER-REU: Summer Research
Experience for Undergraduate Students at Carnegie Mellon University
Applications are due via
email by February 23, 2018.
The Program in
Interdisciplinary Education Research (PIER) at Carnegie Mellon University
offers an exciting summer research opportunity available to undergraduate
students. This program is designed to provide research opportunities to
undergraduates who may be considering pursuing graduate training in the
learning sciences. We encourage applications from students who would like to
conduct research at the interface of the learning sciences and one or more of
the following disciplines: psychology, education, computer science, and
human-computer interaction. We also encourage students who are from
underrepresented groups to apply, including racial/ethnic minorities,
first-generation college students, economically disadvantaged students,
veterans, and students with disabilities.
PIER’s REU program allows
talented undergraduates to spend 8 weeks during the summer in a research laboratory
at Carnegie Mellon University. This program supports our commitment to training
a diverse set of leaders in the field of learning science and related
disciplines.
Applications are
encouraged from students who wish to learn to conduct research in a modern
academic research laboratory under the guidance of experienced scientists. The
REU program will expose students to the excitement and opportunities of a
research career. This experience will provide excellent preparation for
students interested in subsequently pursuing Masters or Ph.D. degrees in
psychology, education, learning science, human-computer interaction, and
related areas of scientific inquiry. Although students from other years may
apply, this opportunity is most fitting for a student at the end of the junior
year of undergraduate studies.
Each student will receive
a fellowship stipend of $3,000 for the eight-week REU program.
Apartment-style housing will also be provided. Guidance and supervision will be
provided by faculty members as well as, in some cases, a postdoctoral fellow
and/or advanced graduate student.
Additionally, admitted students will participate in the Go
Research! Summer Program at CMU. This program brings together undergraduate researchers from across
departments. Students live in dorms with resident assistants to facilitate community building, manage
housing, and provide programming. A Summer Seminar Series is
provided for all students to help prepare for graduate education and research
careers.
