Undergraduate Research

Through the Department of Computer Science & Engineering's Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP), our group has developed a history of encouraging undergraduate participation in our research. In the past, undergraduates working with our group have assisted in the development of applications for the practical evaluation of Lime.

We are actively seeking creative and motivated undergraduates interested in working with our group. We encourage students to bring ideas of their own; projects we envision include the development of applications on top of our new middleware. They include roving games and applications tailored to the automobile testbed. Undergraduate students will collaborate with graduate students to both brainstorm and implement applicable projects.

If you are interested, contact Dr. Catalin Roman.


Undergraduate Students Previously Involved in Research were involved in creating programs that demonstrate the capabilities of the Lime middleware. They developed the Puzzle, RedRover, Chat, Wireless Intersection and Wireless Dashboard demos.

Here is a description of some of the work done by undergraduates.

International Exchange Program

The Department of Computer Science runs an international graduate student exchange program. Students from Wash. U. have the chance to spend a year working on a project at select universities abroad. Students from partner institutions also have the chance to come across to Wash. U. for a year. The main idea of the exchange program is to allow graduate students to work at a foreign research institution for a year, and to have it contribute towards their degree program. The program is geared towards current graduate students who are looking to work on a masters-level project (about one year) in one of the research areas of either the Wash U. computer science department, or one of the partner institutions.
