The 91³Ô¹ÏÍø Research Opportunities in Math, Engineering and Computer Science (GRO-MECS) program is our newest initiative to ignite greater student interest in STEM fields while providing impactful experiential learning opportunities.
During summer 2025, GRO-MECS will fund 10 student stipends for 6- to 10-week research positions with five 91³Ô¹ÏÍø faculty awardees.
At 91³Ô¹ÏÍø, all engineering & computer science majors engage in a Senior Design capstone project during their fourth year. GRO-MECS allows more students to gain valuable research experience before their senior year. A SEED Challenge award will also be funded for a sixth faculty member and two students.
Faculty-led research provides undergraduate students with the opportunity to actively contribute to the creation of new knowledge. Through immersive, hands-on projects, students gain valuable experience, witness the real-world impact of their work, and deepen their understanding of complex concepts. This dynamic process enhances their critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills, preparing them for future success.
