<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>I am posting this announcement for Drs.
Georgios Anagnostopoulos (FIT)</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>and Michael Georgiopoulos (UCF).
Please have your qualified and</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>interested students consider this summer
research opportunity. Thanks.</blockquote>

<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>The University of Central Florida (UCF)
and the Florida Institute of</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>Technology (FIT) were recently awarded an
NSF REU (Research Experiences</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>for Undergraduates) program.</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>The program involves a total of 10
students each summer and we have</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>launched a nationwide search for
high-quality students. The intellectual</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>focus of this REU program is Machine
Learning and its applications and</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>it starts in the Summer of
2007.</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>We are interested in recruiting
Engineering or Science undergraduates</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>(they may be in electrical engineering,
computer engineering, computer</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>science, mathematics, physics, biology
and other related fields) for</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>this REU program. They must be in good
academic standing and US citizens</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>(states & territories) or permanent
residents. The program is very</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>interested in attracting women,
minorities and the disabled to</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>participate in the program. Students that
will be chosen for the program</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>will have their travel and stay paid.
Furthermore, each of them will</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>receive a stipend of $5,000 (for the 10
week summer experience).</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite><br></blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>The program starts in mid-May and lasts
for 10 weeks. There is an</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>application deadline of this program
(March 30th, 2007), so if you are</blockquote>
<blockquote type="cite" cite>interested in this opportunity we
encourage you to go to our site and</blockquote>
