2022 UC Undergraduate Experience Survey

Folks – this is different from our BioE undergraduate survey, but also important!

The 2022 UC Undergraduate Experience Survey (UCUES) is one of the best ways to share your experiences as a Berkeley undergraduate. As an incentive for your participation, when you submit the completed survey you will be automatically entered into the various drawings for Amazon.com gift cards valued at $50 and $100 each (total prizes valued at $3,000).

If you haven’t found the time to complete your 2022 UCUES, please take about 25 minutes to share your voice.

Open Contract Bench Scientist Role

Yard Stick is looking for a Contract Bench Scientist to help us fight climate change with soil. This role will be responsible for scanning soil samples with a bench spectrometer setup at our Oakland, CA lab during May-June, 2022. While this is a non-permanent, project-based role to begin with (estimated 60-80 hours of work), Yard Stick will likely require additional help in the future of a similar nature. We welcome applicants who would be interested in either full-time or part-time work for the duration of this project. An ideal candidate is exceptionally detail-oriented, comfortable with repetitive, careful bench science, and has a passion for climate change solutions. We expect to pay $30-40/hour for this project.

Summer Virtual Immersion in Biomedical Engineering

The BME department at Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) is hosting a Virtual Immersion in Biomedical Engineering (VIBE) program this summer. VIBE is a free 8-week program aimed at providing a virtual design experience to BME undergraduate students (3-5 hours/week). Students will participate in a team based virtual BME design challenge, develop professional skills, and interact with WPI BME faculty.

WPI VIBE Program: June 6 – July 29, 2022

Apply here by May 25, 2022

For more information, visit our website or sign up for the information session on May 20th, 2022

The VIBE program was launched in the summer of 2021 to increase inclusion and equity in BME. It is designed to allow students to work full time and still participate fully as we know that many students rely on funds earned over the summer. Over 350 applicants from 67 universities and 8 countries applied to the program and over 250 successfully completed the program. Final project videos of the 2020 student teams’ presentations can be viewed on YouTube here (over 65 videos, less than 4 min each).

Remote Summer Volunteer teaching Opportunity

Originally designed to be an online “summer camp,” CIP has been offering their services in the fall because of the great need of educational support, and CIP’s next session will be this summer!. CIP is typically formatted so that college students will be session leaders, teaching kids any subject at any time (once to thrice a week). Our mission statement aligns closely with community development, interactive classes, and providing resources to other communities. We realize that our program excludes those without laptops or Wi-Fi, so we raised over $20k to donate laptops and digital infrastructure to children in need. We’ve reached 250+ college students as instructors and 3000+ middle/high schoolers.

We are now recruiting instructors for Summer Session 1 (June 20-July 10) and Summer Session 2 (July 25 – August 14)! The second summer session will have a new set of students, and most session leaders choose to teach the same subject. Here is the link to our application: bit.ly/cipsl22

We have a lot of kids all across the world who would greatly benefit from the services college students have to offer. I’d really appreciate it if you could help spread the word among students in your department by forwarding this email or the attached flyer — more instructors means more free classes for our students around the world! We look forward to hearing from your members!

Feel free to email me if you have any questions! Here is our website if you would like to learn more about our cause: https://www.connectinplace.org
