We are currently in the process of visiting local schools to help students create their projects and talk to them about bioengineering. Please e-mail Melanie at mdas[at]ucsd[dot]edu if interested in helping out! Click here for more information on Operation Balboa.

Submit your research to EUReKA, the undergraduate research conference. This year it’s being held early on Feb. 5 in the von Liebig Center and students do not need to print their own posters! (The posters will be printed by the EUReKA staff.) Students who wish to submit a poster, must do so by 1/30/09. To register and submit, please visit the EUReKA website: http://www.jacobsschool.ucsd.edu/eureka/

Do you like tea? Do you like faculty? If so, then you should come! RSVP to Muthu at mannaama[at]ucsd[dot]edu.

Showcase your research at the 10th annual Engineering Undergraduate Research Konference & Assembly!

EUReKA! 2009 will take place on Thursday, February 5th, from 2 - 5 p.m. at the von Liebig Center (basement of the Bioengineering Building). This year’s event will coincide with the Corporate Affiliates Program board meeting in the Fung Auditorium at 5 p.m.

EUReKA! gives undergrads an opportunity to describe their research project, its implications, and results to-date.

YOU provide a PowerPoint slide of your research project, send it to us, and we pay to have it printed and displayed on poster boards as you mingle with faculty, industry leaders, and your peers! You will also have an opportunity to present your research through an oral and visual presentation to an audience of faculty and peers at the von Liebig Center.

• COMPETE TO WIN cash prizes
• Meet industry contacts for future employment opportunities
• Get feedback on your research from faculty, industry, and your peers
