This page contains information for students who are interested in working in my lab during the academic year or the summer.

Project postings for Summer 2006 will appear around January 2006

2006 Summer Internships

We have collaborations with several different groups that host Caltech students for the summer. The links below provide more information on these opportunities.

  • CDS Alliance - spend 12-16 weeks in Brazil pursuing research in control and/or dynamical systems
  • AFRL Space Scholars Program - internships available for research in control applied to space craft

2006 SURF Projects (In Progress)

  • Micro-Inspector GNC (joint with JPL)
  • Autonomous Vehicle SURFs

How to Apply

If you are interested in working in my lab, you should send me a copy of your resume and a short statement indicating what job(s) you are interested. Your resume should include relevant work experience and, if you are a Caltech student, a list of relevant coursework. Please tell me if you are interested in working part-time (academic year or summer) or full time (summer only).

I accept applications for part-time positions at any time during the academic year. Full-time summer positions are usually filled in April, so you should apply no later than the first week in April. Research projects can either be done as a full-time project over the summer (eg, SURF) or as a part-time project over the academic year. For SURF projects, you should contact me by the first week in February.
