In developing countries, there is a growing need for electricity and generating it in creative ways. India is addressing this problem by giving power to the people and turning them into prosumers. A prosumer is someone who not only consumes electricity, but also produces it, usually through solar panels, and can then sell or trade it back to the power grid.
As part of India’s Smart Grids Innovation Challenge, FIU, in partnership with the Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad (IIMA) has been awarded a $400,000 grant for two years to develop algorithms and software-driven infrastructure to help develop India’s peer-to-peer energy transferring platform. The School of Computing & Information Sciences (SCIS), housed in the College of Engineering & Computing, is spearheading the project with the school director, S.S. Iyengar overseeing the school’s role.
“Our students are first-class researchers and this is a tremendous opportunity for them. They will be helping to shape the future of clean global energy, and setting the gold standard for what it will look like in the future – how it’s generated, stored, delivered, traded and protected.”
~ Dr. Iyengar, Distinguished University Professor, Ryder Professor, and Director

Every year, the FIU's SCIS host Employer Information Sessions on campus, often in conjunction with Career and Talent Development or with participation in Career Fairs.
What They Are
During these sessions, employers make presentations on topics that include the organization's career opportunities, culture, and products or services. Usually, you will have an opportunity to speak with the representatives in small groups or one-on-one before or after the presentation. Professional or "business casual" dress is appropriate unless otherwise indicated and have your resume ready.
Who Should Attend
The vast majority of Employer Information Sessions are open to all interested students and are a great way for you to learn what it might be like to work for a specific employer or in a given industry.
These sessions offer a rare opportunity to talk with recent grads who are working in your field of interest, get answers to your questions, and learn more about how to become a stronger candidate. In some cases, employers require that you attend these sessions if you have a scheduled interview with them.
