Who are the KISS Institute Fellows?

Institute Fellows are robotics experts and researchers who also have a compelling interest in educational issues. The uses of robotics and the educational needs of children are much broader than the capabilities of the staff of KISS Institute. To supplement the capabilities of the Institute, and to bring the Institute's activities to a wider geographic region, KIPR initiated the Institute Fellows program.

Being an Institute Fellow means that you are willing to be a technical resource for the Institute regarding its educational goals. Likewise, KIPR will make available to its Fellows the course outlines and instructional programs it puts together for the Fellows' use in their own teaching activities.

KISS Institute also has a group of Institute Associates. An Institute Associate is interested in supporting the Institute's mission, but may not have the technical qualifications to be an Institute Fellow.

The position of Institute Fellow and Institute Associate are honorary positions bestowed by the Institute in recognition of an individual's interest and capabilities. No financial relationship is implied between the Institute and those individuals designated as Fellows or Associates.

If you are interested in applying to become a KISS Institute Fellow or Associate, please email, fax, or mail a copy of your CV, a cover letter and (if you have it) pictures and video of an interesting robot project you have been involved with.
