The last decade has seen a research wave in terrestrial sensor networks, in which the embedded networked sensing technologies have revolutionized the way for human beings to understand and interact with the physical world on the land. This decade will witness a revolution for the water world: transformative cyber-aquatic technologies will enable us to densely deploy static and mobile systems in an underwater environment, significantly enhancing the spatial and temporal dimensions of our monitoring and exploration capabilities. The Underwater Sensor Network (UWSN) Lab at the University of Connecticut (UConn) recently launched an initiative on Cyber-Aquatic Systems (CAS). Part of the CAS initiative will be an REU site offering undergraduate students to participate in the cutting-edge technologies of cyber-aquatic systems and encouraging them to pursue academic careers and professionals by sparking interests through exciting research projects. A major goal of this interdisciplinary REU site project is to introduce the cutting-edge research and technologies in cyber-aquatic systems to undergraduate students in the early stages of their careers to spark their interests.This REU work, as part of a collaborative action with REU site 1156837, will recruit a diverse group of undergraduate students to engage in research that will broaden their interest in academic careers and professions and help develop a globally competitive engineering workforce equipped with innovative cyber-aquatic technologies. Through integrated research, education and outreach programs, this REU site will better prepare these undergraduate participants for future careers in academia or industry.

在过去的十年中，在陆地传感器网络中看到了一条研究浪潮，在这种浪潮中，嵌入式网络的传感技术彻底改变了人类理解和与土地上物理世界互动的方式。这十年将见证水世界的一场革命：变革性的网络水平技术将使我们能够在水下环境中密集地部署静态和移动系统，从而显着增强了监测和勘探能力的空间和时间维度。康涅狄格大学（UCONN）的水下传感器网络（UWSN）实验室最近发起了一项针对网络式系统（CAS）的计划。 CAS倡议的一部分将是一个REU网站，提供本科生，以参与网络式系统的尖端技术，并鼓励他们通过激动人心的研究项目通过激发兴趣来从事学术职业和专业人士。 这个跨学科的REU网站项目的一个主要目标是介绍网络式系统中的尖端研究和技术，以在其职业生涯的早期阶段向本科生引发他们的兴趣。这是REU的工作，作为REU网站1156837的协作行动的一部分，将在REU网站1156837中招募各种各样的研究人员，以招募一群人，以招募全球范围内的竞争力，以招募全球范围内的竞争力，以培养他们的竞争力群体，使他们能够从事竞争力的范围，以招募全球范围内的竞争力，并将其参与其中配备创新的网络技术技术的工程劳动力。通过综合研究，教育和外展计划，该REU网站将更好地为这些本科参与者做好准备，以供学术界或行业的未来职业。
