There are many benefits to participating in research during your undergraduate career. Participating in a summer Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) can help:
In addition to professional and educational benefits, you'll spend ten weeks of summer working with faculty research mentors on real-world projects at a university or research facility like NASA. You will also receive a stipend - usually $5,000 to $6,000 - with optional travel and housing assistance.
The application process for summer research programs starts toward the end of winter quarter. Please review our list of resources to help you find one that's a good fit.
