Want to Do Undergraduate Research This Summer? Calit2 Can Help

Nearly 300 University of California, San Diego undergraduates have participated in full-time research opportunities with the California Institute for Telecommunications and Information Technology (Calit2) since 2001 — and it is now recruiting to fill as many as 30 more positions for this summer.
