- Week 1 (September 4): Course orientation will be held in Room 104, Mathematical Science Building, and students will select their research topics.

- Weeks 2–14: Research activities will be conducted independently through discussions between students and their faculty advisors.

- Week 15: Research Presentation is scheduled for Thursday, December 11.

The program consists of two tracks: Lab Tour Track and Research Participation Track.

1. Lab Tour Track

Visit eight research laboratories and the Accelerator Facility, with laboratory introductions, research demonstrations, and an accelerator tour.

2.Research Participation Track 

• Participate in research activities in a laboratory for at least one hour per week.
• Receive research guidance from a faculty advisor or graduate student mentor.

1. Week 1: Meeting with the course coordinator and selection of a preferred faculty advisor for research participation.

2. Weeks 2–3: Laboratory safety training and preparation for basic research in each laboratory.

3. Weeks 4–16: Participation in research activities in the assigned laboratory.

The first class will be held at 8:00 AM on Tuesday of the second week in Room 118, Engineering Building 1. (No class during the first week.)

For six weeks, a brief introduction to the department will be provided every Tuesday at 8:00 AM. After that, each student will be assigned a teaching assistant (TA) and will begin participating in laboratory activities.

Further details will be announced via email and PLMS.

Students participate in research activities in the fields of Aerospace Engineering and Robotics in the Department of Mechanical Engineering.

The course structure and operation may be adjusted according to class size.

- Week 1: Orientation, introduction to participating faculty members and their research areas, and faculty advisor matching

- Weeks 2–8: At least three meetings with the assigned faculty advisor or research team

  (Minimum 1 hour per meeting)

- Midterm Progress Report (Due: Saturday, November 2)

One PowerPoint file per team (minimum 5 slides)

Future research plan

- Weeks 9–14: At least three additional meetings

  (Minimum 1 hour per meeting)

- Week 15: Final Presentation

Monday, December 9, 6:00 PM

All teams will present their research to the class.

The final presentation slides serve as the final project report.

Submit a PowerPoint presentation (minimum 15 slides) before the presentation.

Evaluation of students’ class participation and presentations by graduate student mentors

Evaluation of midterm and final presentations by the course instructor

Peer evaluation of presentations by students from other groups

Presentations will be conducted online

Information on the Department of Computer Science and Engineering research areas and participating laboratories will be provided to enrolled students.

Based on the information provided, students will contact faculty members in their research areas of interest and determine their participation through consultation.

Once accepted by a faculty advisor, students will conduct an individual research project under the advisor's supervision.

Upon completion of the research, students must submit a final research report.

Note: The course operation and schedule are subject to change. Detailed information and the final schedule will be announced to enrolled students at a later date.
