Sumario:The first search for supersymmetry with the vector boson fusion (VBF) topology is presented. The VBF topology offers a promising avenue to study the electroweak sector of supersymmetry. The search targets final states with at least two leptons, large missing transverse momentum, and two jets with a large pseudorapidity gap. The data sample used in this analysis corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 fb$^{-1}$ of $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV collected with the CMS detector. The observed dijet invariant mass spectrum after the final selections is consistent with the expected standard model predictions. Upper limits are set for the production of charginos and neutralinos with two associated jets, where sleptons are ligher than charginos.
