EE students receive IEEE Power and Energy Society (PES) Scholarship Plus Initiative Four undergraduate students in Electrical Engineering were selected to receive $2000 scholarships this year from the IEEE Power and Energy Society. Two Hundred and thirty (230) PES Scholarship recipients were selected from 110 U.S., Puerto Rico & Canadian universities for the 2016-17 academic year. The Initiative recognizes undergraduate students who have declared a major in electrical and computer engineering, are high achievers with strong GPAs with distinctive extracurricular commitments and are committed to exploring the power and energy field. This year’s awardees were Christopher Noah, Tristan Siebold, Kyle Swezey and Alexander Tremper. Congratulations to all of these students for their hard work and dedication to the power and energy field.

Summer 2016 Internship Provides Critical Skills for Underrepresented Minority Students and Helps a Local Startup Tech Company Tristan Powell and Jordan Smith, Electrical Engineering students at the University of South Florida, gained critical job skills and gave a solid boost to a local tech startup. Both men are from the U.S. Virgin Islands, and were excited to gain practical, hands-on experience. They landed their internship with Intelemed Technologies, a company developed to support the biotech initiatives in Tampa and the state of Florida. Dr. Catherine (“Cat�) Divingian, CEO and USF medical student, provided the guidance and direction to the students during summer 2016 internship. Working with Graig Alpert, also a medical student; the team started developing medical devices and intelligent apps to support the health of our community heroes, the firefighters and soldiers. Bernard Batson’s expertise was crucial for securing the Florida-Georgia Louis Stokes Alliance Minority Program (FGLSAMP) support for the internship. Through this opportunity, Powell and Smith gained the experience that will give them an advantage in the marketplace. The students learned engineering project management, team work, cost analysis, methods for developing schematics and printed circuit boards, and generating bills of materials. Most importantly, they discovered the value of maintaining a mission orientation by creating technologies that are expected to save lives.
