Calit2 Summer Undergraduate Research Scholar Program at UCSD
Calit2 Summer Undergraduate Research Scholar Program at UCSD 

The UCSD Calit2 Summer Undergraduate Research Scholar Program provides college students with the opportunity to perform hands-on research under the guidance of a UCSD faculty advisor over a 10-week period. The student can either assist in an ongoing research project or propose a new project.
Students will attend weekly seminars to learn more about applying to and preparing for graduate school, funding opportunities for research, connecting with current UCSD graduate students, career opportunities in academia and industry, and making good scientific presentations. All participants will display the results of their research efforts at a poster session at the end of the program a Certificate of Merit will be awarded.
What is Calit2?
UCSD Calit2 is a non-academic university research unit where researchers from different disciplines come together to study and develop new technology to address needs and issues in our economy and society.

The precise positions of Si nanowires are defined by lithography. Nanowire arrays will be placed in microfluidic channels and individual nanowire is addressed electrically through the bottom contact (patterned arrays in x direction) and top electrodes (patterned arrays in y direction) so that...
There currently are systems that can determine with relative accuracy the source of a sound, but these systems rely on a central unit to process all necessary calculations. The goal of my project is to explore a distributive method which generates vectors and computes the location cooperatively...
Surface plasmons are oscillations in electron density formed at the interface between a metal and an insulator. The project will use surface plasmon resonance on 2D nanohole arrays for biological sensing.
