REU students completed twodeliverables: a research project and an open-ended Arduino engineering design project. Initially,students chose their research projects from a list of available opportunities. Once a match wassecured, students worked in their research labs daily with their graduate student and facultymentors.A list of students’ engineering research projects included:1. Accelerating Operations on Graph Neural Network2. Computational Design of Single Atom Catalysts for Electrochemical CO2 Reduction3. Information Theory to Pinpoint Causal Links

However, thesestudents face specific challenges, referred to as the vertical transfer penalty, when they transfer tofour-year universities. This can lead to lower completion rates for community college starterscompared to students who start at four-year universities.

Numerous online applications now pair this data with otherhelpful information such as price predictions and projected depreciation, in order to put the buyerin a much better position to assess the quality of used cars, e.g., Carfax (www.carfax.com),CarGurus (www.cargurus.com), Carvana (www.carvana.com).
