>>and Michael Georgiopoulos (UCF).  Please have your qualified and
>>interested students consider this summer research opportunity.  Thanks.

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