I’m posting a great opportunity on behalf of Dr. Cristina Ramirez:
Homeland Security Scholars Academy Undergraduate Research Program (Pilot)
The University of Texas at El Paso
Summer 2010 June 1 – August 6
The National Center for Border Security and Immigration is offering a 10-week summer research program for undergraduates contemplating a career in homeland security. Students will work on relevant research projects with professors from the Departments of Business Administration, Engineering, Computer Science, Criminal Justice, Psychology and Political Science.
Undergraduates will receive a stipend of $4,000. Students who do not live within commuting distance (approximately 100 miles) will be offered on-campus housing and a meal allowance. Students will be expected to work 40 hours a week. In addition to working on research, students will be exposed to DHS agencies through field trips and speakers. This program is designed to introduce students to the many possiblities of careers in the homeland security field.
If you are interested, please complete the application and submit it by May 7. The review process is currently on-going.
