Providing young college students an opportunity to function as researchers on projects that are current, relevant, and interesting can have a profound positive influence on their desire to pursue a career in a STEM related field. The Applied Research Experience in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ApREECE) Program at Oakland University will provide an engaging research experience for 30 undergraduates over the next three years, with special focus on women and underrepresented minority students. The students will engage in active projects that include mimicking the visual system of the common house fly, developing a hybrid multi-rotor UAV, studying how to better image the human heart using PET imaging, developing MEMS magnetic sensors with high sensitivity, and learning about adaptive beamforming architectures for smart automobile antennas. The Applied Research Experience in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ApREECE) program is a three year summer camp that provides thirty undergraduate students with an opportunity to be part of exciting and motivating research and development efforts in various fields of engineering at Oakland University. Participants will learn about the possibilities and the impact of engineering on our lives through close interaction with faculty, research staff, and industry collaborators in the Metro Detroit Area. With close mentoring from faculty, the students will gain valuable skills in contributing to successful research, teamwork, communication, and dissemination of their work through technical conferences.

为年轻的大学生提供一个机会，在当前，相关和有趣的项目上担任研究人员，可以对他们在STEM相关领域从事职业的愿望产生深远的积极影响。奥克兰大学的电气和计算机工程应用研究经验（ApREECE）计划将在未来三年内为30名本科生提供引人入胜的研究经验，特别关注女性和代表性不足的少数民族学生。学生将参与积极的项目，包括模仿常见的家蝇的视觉系统，开发混合多旋翼无人机，研究如何使用PET成像更好地成像人类心脏，开发具有高灵敏度的MEMS磁传感器，以及学习智能汽车天线的自适应波束形成架构。电气和计算机工程应用研究经验（ApREECE）计划是一个为期三年的夏令营，为30名本科生提供了一个机会，让他们有机会参与奥克兰大学各个工程领域令人兴奋和激励人心的研究和开发工作。参与者将通过与底特律大都会地区的教师，研究人员和行业合作者的密切互动，了解工程对我们生活的可能性和影响。通过教师的密切指导，学生将获得宝贵的技能，有助于成功的研究，团队合作，沟通和通过技术会议传播他们的工作。
