The CASL Education Program was established to ensure that CASL results and technology were integrated into undergraduate and graduate curricula, and support the transfer of CASL technology to industry users. Programs developed to support this goal include undergraduate research opportunities, summer internships, development of new courses at constituent Universities and establishment of the CASL Institute. Panel members include faculty members from CASL partner Universities (NCSU, MIT, and UM), industry and former students that participated in activities sponsored by the Education Program. Presentations will summarize the history and evolution of the Education Program and its major contributions. Individual panel members will provide their unique experiences/perspectives associated with the program, followed by questions and discussion.
