A University of Idaho professor is recruiting top engineering undergraduates from throughout the country for a new 10-week summer program, challenging participants to design and build autonomous unmanned vehicles including drone aircraft, watercraft and land rovers.

At a Glance:

10-week summer program at U of I Boise focuses on autonomous drones , rovers, and watercraft.

Students gain AI, robotics , and sensor-based skills for real-world engineering challenges.

Funded by $454,000 NSF-REU grant with $7,000 stipend per participant.

Program combines virtual learning with hands-on, in-person training and team projects.

Participants will develop technological skills such as using automatic-control, sensors, artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics to s
