Advising: Other than Research

1.   Established co-op program at the University for local UMD high school students to gain direct experience in engineering disciplines involved in the electro-technology industry. Generally, 2 to 4 high school students participate during the summer.

2.   From 1993-1996, advised undergraduate scholars in cooperation with the University of Maryland Research Experiences for Undergraduates office and the office of Graduate Minority Affairs. Students come from Lehigh, Cornell, South Carolina State University, the University of Maryland, and other schools, and represent electrical, chemical, mechanical, and industrial engineering disciplines. The eight-week program included an educational introduction to electronic packaging and individual research projects, with hands-on experience in experimental and analytical techniques. Since 1996, this has been expanded to include foreign visitors as well.

3.   Advisor: Int’l Society of Hybrid Microelectronic (1989-1999)

4.   Advisor: Pi Tau Sigma: (1988)
