Posted by Sheri Krueger | Under NSF Fellows Thursday Jun 12, 2008Jumie Yuventi is a 2008 NSF GRF recipient in Electrical Engineering. Jumie plans to use the fellowship to continue his work in Engineering Education, Micro-architecture and circuitry at Stanford University beginning in fall 2008.
Before graduating in December 2007, Jumie Yuventi had completed over two years of undergraduate research at his alma Mater, The City College of New York. The majority of his research endeavors have been through the New York City Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Research Program (NYC LSAMP), funded by the NSF.
After obtaining his Bachelor’s Degree Jumie has continued to work as a web developer for the NYC LSAMP on ProjectSTEM.net, an endeavor that seeks to promote and facilitate collaborative research via the Internet.
He attributes a lot of his more recent success to Dr. Claude Brathwaite, the director of the NYC LSAMP. Dr. Brathwaite encouraged Jumie to get involved in different research projects and also informed him of the NSF Graduate Fellowship award.
