Naka­mura’s re­search group based on Me­chan­i­cal En­gi­neer­ing De­part­ment in New York City Col­lege of Tech­nol­ogy (City Tech), The City Uni­ver­sity of New York (CUNY). This lab­o­ra­tory is a pro­fes­sional re­search unit, not a stu­dent club, but opens to every­one who would like to con­duct re­search on en­ergy, en­vi­ron­men­tal en­gi­neer­ing (in­clud­ing ecode­sign), and com­put­ing for sus­tain­abil­ity. Also, it’s for peo­ple who wish to ob­tain Re­search and De­vel­op­ment (R&D) skills re­quired in a high-level po­si­tion in the in­dus­try and acad­e­mia. Ex­cel­lent stu­dents can be rec­om­mended to be­come re­search as­sis­tants in order to pub­lish a paper as a co-au­thor, and have an oral pre­sen­ta­tion in an in­ter­na­tional con­fer­ence. These re­search ac­tiv­i­ties make stu­dents’ re­sume strong (R&D skills, pub­li­ca­tion, pro­fes­sional pre­sen­ta­tion) and will be a huge ad­van­tage for find­ing an en­gi­neer­ing po­si­tion or being ac­cepted to grad­u­ate schools for Mas­ter or doc­toral de­gree. If you are in­ter­ested in join­ing EES Lab, please send Pro­fes­sor Masato R. Naka­mura (Tel: 718-260-5532, mnaka­mura@​citytech.​cuny.​edu ) your re­sume and an­swers of fol­low­ing ques­tions: 1) What kinds of re­search fields are you in­ter­ested in? 2) How many hours per week can you spend for con­duct­ing re­search? 3) De­scribe your skills/knowl­edge of math, physics, com­put­ers, and ex­per­i­men­tal work (lab hands-on skills). 4) After fin­ish­ing your de­gree pro­gram, what kind of in­dus­try or grad­u­ate school pro­gram you’d like to go?

Research Lab Website: openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/eesl/ Lab Profile (this site): openlab.citytech.cuny.edu/groups/energy-and-environmental-simulation-laboratory/ Energy and Environmental Simulation Laboratory (EES Lab) is Professor Masato R. Nakamura’s research group based on Mechanical Engineering Department in New York City College of Technology (City Tech), The City University of New York (CUNY). This laboratory is a professional research unit, not a student club, but opens to everyone who would like to conduct research on energy, environmental engineering (including ecodesign), and computing for sustainability. Also, it’s for people who wish to obtain Research and Development (R&D) skills required in a high-level position in the industry and academia. Excellent students can be recommended to become research assistants in order to publish a paper as a co-author, and have an oral presentation in an international conference. These research activities make students’ resume strong (R&D skills, publication, professional presentation) and will be a huge advantage for finding an engineering position or being accepted to graduate schools for Master or doctoral degree. If you are interested in joining EES Lab, please send Professor Masato R. Nakamura (Tel: 718-260-5532, mnakamura@citytech.cuny.edu ) your resume and answers of following questions: 1) What kinds of research fields are you interested in? 2) How many hours per week can you spend for conducting research? 3) Describe your skills/knowledge of math, physics, computers, and experimental work (lab hands-on skills). 4) After finishing your degree program, what kind of industry or graduate school program you’d like to go?

The Louis Stokes Al­liance for Mi­nor­ity Par­tic­i­pa­tion Pro­gram is funded by a grant from the Na­tional Sci­ence Foun­da­tion (NSF). LSAMP or AMP aims to in­crease the per­cent­age of CUNY stu­dents en­rolled in sci­ence, tech­nol­ogy, en­gi­neer­ing, and math­e­mat­ics (STEM) ma­jors who con­duct fac­ulty men­tored re­search prior to grad­u­at­ing or en­ter­ing in­dus­try. Par­tic­i­pants of LSAMP re­ceive a stipends up to $4000. The fund­ing is great, but the re­search ex­pe­ri­ence (lo­cally and abroad) and rec­om­men­da­tion let­ters that par­tic­i­pants re­ceive are greater.

The Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation Program is funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF). LSAMP or AMP aims to increase the percentage of CUNY students enrolled in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) majors who conduct faculty mentored research prior to graduating or entering industry. Participants of LSAMP receive a stipends up to $4000. The funding is great, but the research experience (locally and abroad) and recommendation letters that participants receive are greater.
