October 31 2011
November 18, 2011 is the deadline to withdraw from class without the college dean's signature. To withdraw from classes by this deadline, students must complete the petition to withdraw from classes and obtain the approval of the instructor and of the department. Note also, that withdrawing at this point will result in a W which also counts against the limit on number of units a student may withdraw from. Students need to have the most accurate information regarding their standing in a class to make a decision, thus it is important that students have a frank discussion with their instructors and advisor if you are considering withdrawing from class. Students should also review CSULB's policy on repeating courses.
All students should have received an e-mail message with their enrollment appointment for Spring 2012. If for some reason you have not, you should make sure your e-mail address is correct via MyCSULB. You can star using MyCSULB to choose your classes from the Spring 2012 schedule, add them to your registration, have the system verify your intended schedule and when your enrollment appointment comes up just register!
Some additional notes regarding Spring 2012 enrollment:
College of Engineering undergraduate students who transferred to CSULB beginning this Fall 2011 have mandatory advising and must meet with their major advisor in order to release the hold on their Spring 2012 registration. All such transfer students should have received an e-mail message letting them know of this requirement. Please see your major advisor ASAP so that you can be advised on the requirements of the major and the classes to enroll in Spring 2012. Computer science students should see Dr. Monge while computer engineering students should see Dr. Chelian.
The Computing Community Consortium (CCC) has developed a website to help undergraduates who are interested in summer research and/or graduate school.

DEVELOP is a NASA Science Mission Directorate Applied Sciences Training and Development Program. Students and young professionals work on Earth science research projects, mentored by science advisors from NASA and partner agencies to extend research results to local communities. The projects demonstrate to community leaders and organizations how NASA science measurements and predictions can be used to address local policy issues.
Past projects at DEVELOP JPL include ecological forecasting and studies of the BP Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico, natural hazard assessments of Los Angeles earthquakes and fires, air quality monitoring, and coastal wetland and sea level monitoring using remote sensing and geographic information systems (GIS). DEVELOP participants have had the opportunity in the past to present their research and network at such conferences as the International Astronautical Congress (IAC), The American Geophysical Union (AGU), The American Society of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS), The American Meteorological Society (AMS), The Council of State Governments (CSG), at NASA Langley Research Center, and at NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC.
The NASA DEVELOP Program was selected to receive the prestigious NASA Group Achievement Award for 2011. DEVELOP participants are challenged to think “outside the box,” take initiative, employ innovative ideas, gain valuable management and leadership experience, and gain experience in delivering results to officials in government, academia, and industry, thereby extending the benefits of NASA science and technology to the public. Ultimately, DEVELOP participants are better prepared to handle environmental science challenges that face our society and future generations.
DEVELOP had the opportunity to attend the 62nd International Astronautical Congress in Cape Town, South Africa from September 28 - October 8 this year. Three DEVELOP participants were selected from a video competition to speak on a panel at the plenary, titled “Next Generation Visions for Earth Observations in the 21st Century.” They also presented and published their research in the 62nd International Astronautical Congress Proceedings.
DEVELOP participants also presented their research in a virtual poster session, hosted by Earthzine, of which our Jet Propulsion Laboratory location was the winner.
Interns work in student teams to complete rapid research projects in 10 weeks using NASA remote sensing data and other data sources.
DEVELOP has opportunities nationwide, and we are actively recruiting for Spring and Summer 2012 interns at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, CA.
Applications are available through our DEVELOP website.
Internships are paid. Rate varies by educational attainment level. Spring 2012 students are expected to work a maximum of 20 hours per week, and will begin on January 23, 2012 and end on March 30, 2012. Summer 2012 students are expected to work a minimum of 30 hours per week, and will begin on June 4, 2012 and end on August 10, 2012.

We are a team of two people (a CSULB professor of science and a businessman) who founded an online ecommerce global trading company in an untouched market based in Los Angeles. Our development led to an original site, servicing BtoC / BtoB. Many business owners in the field show great excitement about the idea and we are thrilled to soon launch the site, which will soon lead to global exposure. We are now at the stage where we need to add another partner to our team. Most work has been done, except for the final graphics design integration and some tests. This project right now is in stealth mode; therefore we will not disclose any details about the company until further communication. We are looking for a PHP programmer locally who is up-to-date and familiar with commerce applications. One who can join our team and partner with us in managing the site and taking it to the next level for a stake in the company.

Whether it was a dynamic trailer that got consumers excited about seeing a film, or a hilarious promo that turned them into a sitcom fan, there's a good chance it came from Trailer Park. We've been doing this type of work for the biggest media and entertainment companies in the world for years. Last year alone, Trailer Park created award-winning content worth billions of dollars in revenue for our clients. That's billions, with a “B”. The secret of our success? Focusing on getting our clients names in the press, rather than our own.
We have immediate staffing requirements, all listed on the Trailer Parks job listings website. Here is information about two of these positions located in Hollywood:
