The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program supports active research participation by undergraduate students in any of the areas of research funded by the National Science Foundation. Think of them as paid, summer internships doing research with scholars throughout the U.S. and in some international locations. Awards are typically available in most STEM fields, social and behavioral sciences, business, education, and ethics. REUs are paid, and sometimes cover additional expenses like housing and travel to/from the REU location.
Ideal for students in first, second, or third year of undergraduate studies.Previous research experience not required. United States citizenship is required for most, but not all, REUs.
