<Title>Research Experience in Cyber &amp; Civil Infrastructure Security</Title>
<Tagline>For Students With ADHD</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><strong>Please contact Janet McGlynn (<a href="mailto:mcglynn@umbc.edu">mcglynn@umbc.edu</a>) for assistance with the application process, including a review of your resume and personal statement.</strong><br><u><a href="http://reu-ccis.uconn.edu/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><br>http://reu-ccis.uconn.edu/</a><br><br>Project Overview</u><br><br>This REU Site is funded by The National Science Foundation (NSF), Division of Engineering Education and Centers, offering research opportunities in the security of crucial infrastructures to undergraduates with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD/ADD).  Studies suggest that students with ADHD are more creative and more willing to take risks. Those traits are exactly what the field of engineering needs.  Therefore, these students may offer the potential to present revolutionizing solutions to complex problems dealing with cyber and physical security of critical infrastructure.  The growing interconnection, interdependence, complexity, and integration among cyber and civil infrastructure systems; the ever-increasing sophistication of cyber threats, and the severity of recent manmade and natural hazards, demand novel, interdisciplinary research approaches to this immediate challenge.  The knowledge generated through this project regarding the experience of ADHD students and the impediments they face in traditional engineering education and research settings, may significantly encourage future research in learning environments, workforce development, and may ultimately broaden participation of non-traditional, underrepresented groups in engineering disciplines.<br>Eligibility<br><br>This program is designed specifically for students diagnosed with or showing signs of ADHD who are traditionally underrepresented and under-served in engineering programs.  The NSF stipulates that participants must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents enrolled as Engineering Majors who have completed their sophomore or junior year by June 1, 2014.  You must provide a document from your doctor or complete the self-assessment for proof of eligibility upon acceptance.  Students must also have a minimum GPA of 2.8 (out of 4.0).<br>Application<br><br>Apply online now! Deadline is March 27th, 2015.  Students will be notified of their acceptance by April 10th.<br><u><br>Program Details</u><br><br>The program combines a ten-week traditional summer REU research experience with close mentorship, specially designed seminars, brainstorming sessions, and workshops designed to address the strengths and needs of participants.  Students will participate in their own original research projects in the morning and in the afternoon there will be laboratory rotations to provide a multidisciplinary research experience.  Participants will have the opportunity to present their creative ideas relating their experiences from different research areas.<br><br>Duration: 10 weeks, June 1st, 2015 – August 7th, 2015<br>Stipend: $500 per week<br>Travel Reimbursement: Up to $750<br>Cost of Attending a Technical Conference: Up to $1,200<br>Housing and Food: Provided<br>Research Opportunities<br><br>Students will participate in one of the following research labs for their main project.  Afternoon lab rotations will provide participants with research experience on other topics.<br><br>    Hardware Security and Trusts<br>    Sensor-Aided Cyber Physical System of Smart Transportation System<br>    Bridge Weigh-In-Motion<br>    Comprehensive Public Transportation System Access, Resilience and Connectivity<br>    Secure Embedded Systems Design<br>    Critical Systems Security Assessment<br>    Additive Manufacturing of Metallic Cellular Plates for Blast and Impact Resistance<br>    Next-Generation Bridge Columns for Multihazard Robustness<br>    Novel Vibration Mitigation Devices for Traffic Signal Support Structures<br><br><u>Your Privacy</u><br><br>This research has been reviewed and approved by the Institutional Review Board (IRB) of the University of Connecticut. IRB Exemption #: X14-199.   The Principle Investigators of the project will do diligence to protect the privacy of each participant.  The registration website will be launched on the high security server of the UConn School of Engineering.  However, it should be noted that, if you are selected to participate in the program, lab directors and possible the graduate students who will be in the program will be aware of the eligibility requirement for this REU Site.   If you have any questions regarding your privacy you may contact the Principle Investigator Arash E. Zaghi at <a href="mailto:zaghi@engr.uconn.edu">zaghi@engr.uconn.edu</a> or (860) 486-2468.<br></div>

<Title>Spring Registration - Advising Appointment Reminder</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">It is time to start preparing for Spring 2016 registration. All students must meet with an advisor to receive registration clearance for spring classes. Your registration date will be posted in myUMBC at the top of the page. In order to register on this date, you must meet with an advisor prior to this date to get registration clearance. Students do not need special clearance to register for winter classes. Winter registration opens for all students on October 26th.<br><br><strong>Please read the instructions below for information about how to sign up for your advising appointment. There are different instructions depending on whether you have completed the gateway requirements for your major. Please read through this entire message.</strong><br><br>If you are currently enrolled in LRC 99, MATH 106, or do not have a math placement, you will be advised by the Office of Academic and Pre-Professional Advising in the Academic Services Building.<br><br>Prior to your appointment:<br>1.    Please review your scheduling options by looking over the schedule of classes, available starting on October 26th, on the UMBC website <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/go/schedule" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a>.<br>2.    Review your degree audit – major and general education/foundation requirements, so that you are aware of the courses still needed to complete your degree requirements. Learn more about your degree audit <a href="http://my.umbc.edu/groups/advising/news/17978" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a>.<br>3.    Review the sample 4-year plan for your major to determine where you are in the recommended sequence of courses. <a href="http://advising.coeit.umbc.edu/four-year-plans/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a><br>4.    Check the Gateway requirements for your major and determine where you are in relation to the completion of this requirement. <a href="http://advising.coeit.umbc.edu/gateway-information/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a><br>5.    Come prepared to your appointment with a list of courses you intend to take in Spring 2016.<br><br>After your advising appointment, you will have clearance to register for classes. However, you will not be able to register until your assigned registration time. Your registration time is the earliest date and time that you may register for classes. For information about registration times, please go <a href="http://registrar.umbc.edu/academic-calendar/registration-appointments/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">HERE</a>, or check the banner on the top of your myUMBC page. If you have not attended an advising appointment, you will not be able to register when your registration time occurs.<br><br>If you have a hold on your account, it is still important that you sign up for an advising appointment.
