| With
support from the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA), ASEE has launched Tech-Interns.com,
a great new site. This site is an easy-to-use resource
that directs students to numerous internship programs,
research opportunities, links to scholarship information,
and useful career development tools. It's a searchable
database with more than 200 different internship
and research opportunities available in 20 different
engineering and science disciplines. There are also
links to additional resources on technical job opportunities,
scholarship and financial aid information, articles
on writing a resume, and interviewing tips. A Frequently
Asked Questions page offers answers to the many
different questions a student might ask on that
quest for the ideal internship. The launch of Tech-Interns.com
is part of ASEE's ongoing mission to provide services
that promote and expand the reach of engineering
educational opportunities. |

| The Washington
Internships for Students of Engineering (WISE)
Amount: $2,100 |
| WISE
offers an opportunity for eligible engineering students
to spend a summer in Washington learning how government
officials make decisions on complex technological
issues and how engineers can contribute to legislative
and regulatory policy decisions. Students
will have the opportunity to interact with leaders
in the Congress and the Administration, prominent
non-governmental organizations, and industry.
This is a ten week program ( June 2nd- August
8th).
Eligibility
- be undergraduate engineering students (juniors
or seniors)
- recent graduates beginning study in an engineering
policy-related Master's program.
- citizen of the US
- Those who are seeking sponsorship by AIChE,
ANS, ASCE, ASME, the student is required to

in the unique Center for Embedded Networked Sensing
(CENS)
Amount: Selected students receive
stipend, trasportation cost and room and board |
The CENS is a NSF funded
project under the Direction of the young and dynamic
Professor
Deborah Estrin and is a collaborative with USC,
UC Riverside, James
Reserve, JPL and CSU LA. Selected MEP students can
receive transportation costs, a good weekly stipend,
room and board
allowance and a hands-on peep at the amazing concepts
underlying
how ubiquitous smart Micro/Nano senors and
actuators designed on Internet
dimensions will be embedded in the physical
environment to monitor and
collate information on anything - on a global scale.
CEED will work to connect all students to
the engineering graduate
programs and provide one-one assessment of
what each student needs to do
present a competitive academic profile for
advanced study at UCLA . They
will also be involved the SMARTS summer program
for urban high school
students. It is a good deal.
Eligibility

(SURE) program. Applications are especially
encouraged from women, students at primarily undergraduate
institutions, student who are members of underrepresented
groups, and students with physical disabilities.
The SURE program allows students to work on independent
research projects involving direct interactions
with research scientists, post-doctoral scholars,
and graduate students at Stanford University,
IBM Almaden Research Center, University of California-
Berkeley, University of California- Davis or a
CPIMA Affiliate.
Made possible through grants from
the National Science Foundation-
Materials Research Science an Engineering Center
(NSF-MRSEC) and the National Science Foundation-
Research Experience for Undergraduates (NSF-REU)
programs, participants will recieve a stipend
of $4500 for the 10-week program and some travel
reimbursement. Housing will be provided
