ACM-SIGAI hosts talk on how to get involved in summer research through the NSF's Research Experiences for Undergraduates program

Submitted by Jordan Roth

Summer is approaching fast, and K-State's Association for Computing Machinery — Special Interest Group on Artificial Intelligence, or ACM-SIGAI, wants those in science fields to know their options for summer jobs.

Many people are interested in summer research, but they do not know where or how to apply. Come enjoy pizza and listen to one of our club's officers who had personal experience working in the National Science Foundation’s Research Experiences for Undergraduates program this last summer. 

The event will be at 5:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 4, in 1116 Engineering Building. Please RSVP at bit.ly/2DJn0yB.

You will learn what it is like to work in summer research, the benefits of the program — financial and academic — and how to navigate through the National Science Foundation's website to find the perfect research opportunities for you. In addition, we will discuss upcoming events in ACM-SIGAI such as artificial intelligence topics presented by professional outside speakers and our meetings designed to understand where to begin in artificial intelligence.
