Dear Faculty,



The Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University is pleased to announce
the continuation of our recently developed research experience program for
undergraduate students (see http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~summerscholar). We would
appreciate it if you would distribute the information below to students whom
you think may be interested in this opportunity. Please note that the
deadline for applying is February 28, 2009.



Thank you for your help in informing students about this program. Please
feel free to distribute this email to your colleagues and to contact me for
additional information.

==================================================



The Robotics Institute Summer Scholars program is a summer research
experience program for highly qualified and motivated undergraduate
students. Acceptance to the program is limited and very competitive. Summer
scholars who are accepted into the program will have a chance to work on
state-of-the-art research projects at Carnegie Mellon's world-renowned
Robotics Institute. Scholars will be assigned to work with faculty members
who fit their area of interest. Projects will range from a wide variety of
sub-fields in robotics including (but not limited to!) mobile robotics,
computer vision, machine learning, robot navigation, autonomy, humanoid
robotics, human-robot interaction, multi-robot systems, graphics, and
mechanical design. We also expect to host some special social and
educational activities specifically for the Summer Scholars.



Details about the program, including how to apply, can be found at
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~summerscholar <

http://www.cs.cmu.edu/%7Esummerscholar>. The application deadline is
February 28, 2009.
