Dear Friends and Colleagues:



Undergraduates and graduates students seeking an in-depth summer research
experience should consider our programs at HERL. HERL offers:



   - A ten-week paid research and development program within the Human
   Engineering Research Laboratories of the University of Pittsburgh and US
   Department of Veterans Affairs
   - HERL provides programs sponsored by the National Science Foundation
   (NSF), National Institute on Disability, Independent Living, and
   Rehabilitation Research (NIDILRR), and US Department of Veterans Affairs.
   - HERL also offers the ELeVATE program for veterans, cadets, and
   military/veteran dependents through the support of generous donors.
   - Emphasis of HERL’s programs is on research and development in the
   rehabilitation engineering and assistive technology fields



In addition to full participation in an on-going HERL research and/or
development project, students are presented with numerous opportunities for
personal and professional development. Participants will write a project
paper, develop a poster, and compete in an elevator pitch competition based
on their research or development assignment.  The Summer Intern program
concludes with a Final Symposium and HERL Open House where the winners of
the best paper, poster, and elevator pitch are recognized, and members of
the public are welcome to meet students, observe demonstrations, and learn
first hand about some of the activities in HERL.
