PSA: RESEARCH EXPERIENCE FOR UNDERGRADUATES (REU) • These are summer programs run via the NSF (and other orgs) around the country, where you go for ~10 weeks to do research with someone. Internships are paid and housing/ travel costs are included! • A really good way to get your foot in the door on research we don’t cover at UO, especially if you’re thinking of grad school! • For NSF-run programs you must be a US citizen/ green card holder, who has not yet graduated. The most competitive REUs are typically given to rising seniors, but less competitive programs might take applicants earlier on • Most deadlines are February 1; some earlier.
