Title: Research experiences for undergraduates program (REU)
Url: http://www.nsf.gov/home/crssprgm/reu/start.htm
Contributor: National Science foundation (NSF) (author)
National Science Foundation (NSF) (publisher)
Description: The National Science Foundation makes possible a number of opportunities for undergraduates to join research projects each summer. This allows students to experience first-hand how basic research is carried out, and to contribute consequentially. The principal support by NSF of such activities is through the Research Experiences for Undergraduates Program.REU Sites are established in all fields of science, mathematics, and engineering. Students who are in those groups traditionally under-represented in science (women, members of under-represented minorities, and those with disabilities) are particularly urged to apply. Students with special personal needs or requirements, or who can attend a Site only under special conditions, are also encouraged to apply. This resource is appropriate for all users, particularly for women, members of under-represented minorities, and those with disabilities, because it informs them about research opportunities especially targeted at them.
