Undergraduate Research


Pebble

Summer Research: Every summer we form a new undergraduate mobile computing research group whose focus is to learn advanced mobile computing technologies, and to engage in serious research activities that lead to publications in top computer science venues. Topics include: programming wearables and smartphones, and machine learning. [Summer'15] [Summer'16] [PerIoT'17]



UNC Mobile

Advanced UG Course: An advanced 500-level mobile computing systems course is offered every spring that covers the basics of mobile applications, OS, networks, and embedded sensor systems. Android and Arduino are used as the study/programming platforms. The course is taken by 50+ undergraduate students (CS and non-CS), and some graduate students. [Webpage]
