CIAMTIS Lehigh Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program

Lehigh University, through its Institute for Cyber Physical Infrastructure and Energy (I-CPIE) and its Advanced Technology for Large Structural Systems (ATLSS) Engineering Research Center, in conjunction with the Pennsylvania Infrastructure Technology Alliance (PITA) program, conducted a virtual 10-week CIAMTIS Lehigh Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The program, which ran from May 27, 2020 through July 31, 2020, featured Lehigh University students who participated in a virtual program that exposed the students to a well-rounded experience, including both research-focused and professional development-focused activities. The program’s activities included professional skills development workshops in addition to the assignment of students to an active CIAMTIS research project at ATLSS or a technical project related to the mission of CIAMTIS under the direction of the project Principal Investigator and graduate student mentor to help them navigate through the research project experience. The program culminated with a final report, presentation, and poster on their research findings.
