Learn more about applying 

The experience provided with it [me] a lot of new skills to be learned through skills labs and seminars. Overall, I was really satisfied because before the REU started, I was really interested in research and getting an experience like this makes [me] want to pursue a career in research even more.”

 

“I learned an incredible amount about virtual and augmented reality, conducting research, and rehabilitation that simply going to class or reading studies would not have provided. My programming skills improved by a lot; seeing my code visual through virtual reality was [a] nice boost. Working as a team and knowing what to prioritize was something I got from the experience as well.”

REU SITE: HUMANS MOVE

RESEARCH FOCUS

Our REU Site is focused on conducting state-of-the-art research in 3-Dimensional User Interfaces for Immersive Environments, such as virtual and augmented reality and immersive visualizations.

 

REU students will work on on projects with and mentored by multidisciplinary teams of faculty, students, and staff in areas of computer science, electrical and computer engineering, kinesiology, visualization, art, and design.

 

REU students will complete projects that have the potential to improve 3D tasks, scientific workflow, health, and community improvement.

 

Our REU Site intends to connect our student participants in a community network to undergraduate and graduate students, faculty, and staff, to utilize beyond the on-site experience.
