> Dear Students interested in energy-related UROPs,
>
> The MIT Energy Initiative (MITEI) will support several full-time  
> energy UROPs during Summer 2011.  Undergraduate research topics may  
> address any aspect of energy systems and related environmental  
> challenges, such as energy sources and supply (solar, wind,  
> geothermal, nuclear, fossil fuel, etc); conversion, storage and  
> distribution; technology and use (transportation, buildings, etc);  
> policy; efficiency and demand-side management; and campus energy  
> management.
>
> Applications for summer 2011 Energy UROPs should include a brief  
> proposal developed with a faculty mentor who will supervise your  
> summer work.
>
> If interested, and if you have a faculty advisor in mind, please  
> work together to develop a one to three page proposal which  
> describes the context and scope of project, a tentative work plan,  
> your role in the UROP, and what you hope to get out of the  
> experience, both academically and personally.
>
> If you do not have a faculty advisor in mind but would like to find  
> a project, please see http://web.mit.edu/mitei/education/urop.html  
> for more information.
>
> Please submit your proposal to MITEI Student Activities Coordinator  
> Jennifer DiMase (jdimase at mit.edu) no later than 12 noon on Friday,  
> March 11.  You may also wish to submit an online UROP application to  
> be considered for Direct Funding through the UROP office, should  
> your project not be among those funded by MITEI.  Ideally, MITEI  
> UROP funding decisions will be made by April 14th, which is the UROP  
> office summer direct funding deadline.
>
> MITEI UROP funding is provided by private donors and by members of  
> the MIT Energy Initiative, including Founding Member BP and  
> individual Affiliate Members with a particular interest in  
> supporting undergraduate research. Project descriptions of the 23  
> undergraduate researchers who worked on projects during summer 2010  
> can be viewed online.

> Best,
> Jennifer DiMase
