	NSF STC Summer Internships : As an NSF STC, CENS also promotes internships at the 13 Science & Technology Centers across the country, each focused on a different research area. For more information, please check out the website at www.nsfstc.org .

What is CENS?

Headquartered at UCLA (with partners at USC, UCR, Caltech, and UC Merced), CENS is an National Science Foundation Science & Technology Center that develops Embedded Networked Sensing (ENS) systems, which are massively distributed collections of smart sensors and actuators embedded in the physical world. ENS systems will form a critical infrastructure resource for society, similar to the Internet for the physical world. This revolutionary technology is applied to critical scientific and social applications, including applications in terrestrial ecology, seismology, contaminant management, and marine biology.
