Georgia Institute of Technology, School of Mathematics REU

The School of Mathematics at Georgia Tech invites application for undergraduate research in algebra, topology, discrete mathematics, applied mathematics, analysis, and other topics in Summer 2020. A list of past and future projects can be found here.
The program is open to all undergraduate students, regardless of major, who are US citizens, US permanent residents, or are based at a US university on a visa allowing them to legally work for Georgia Tech. The deadline for applications is February 15th, although applications received after the deadline may still be considered. Decisions will be announced by March 20th.
A typical research project lasts approximately 8 weeks, in June and July, although the exact timing is negotiable and can be worked out between students and their mentors. There will be a $5000 total summer stipend, and there is affordable housing available on campus. In most cases no separate travel, housing, or meal funds are provided.
The application should include one reference letter, an unofficial transcript, and a personal statement listing math courses (with grades), computer skills, previous research experiences, preferences for mentors and research subjects, and explaining why the student wishes to participate in the program.
Underrepresented minority students are strongly encouraged to apply.

Aquatic Chemical Ecology REU Program

Aquatic Chemical Ecology (ACE) at Georgia Tech is a ten-week summer research program supported by the National Science Foundation REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) program. ACE at Georgia Tech gives students the opportunity to perform exciting research with faculty in the schools of Biology, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, Chemistry & Biochemistry, Civil & Environmental Engineering, and Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering.

Assessment and Sustainable Management of Ecosystem Services (EcoREU)

Undergraduate students who are interested in doing research about environmental systems or sustainability can apply to do the Research Experience for Undergraduates program with the University of Arkansas. Students will make $5,500 over the course of the summer and get free room and board, plus a travel allowance.

The EcoREU focuses on field- and lab-based research in areas such as water quality, sustainability, biofuels, agroecosystems, and more. Projects are supervised by university professors and vary from year-to-year based on the most current work conducted at the University of Arkansas and partnering universities.

During the 10-week program, students will get a crash course about ecosystem services, conduct research with help and guidance from their advisor, and learn how to analyze their data and share their results with peers and other researchers.

Blandy Experimental Farm Research Experiences for Undergraduates at University of Virginia

The Blandy Experimental Farm provides an Undergraduate Research Fellowship to students interested in ecology and environmental science. The primary goal is to teach students to formulate testable hypotheses about important ecological and evolutionary questions. The format of the program encourages students to develop skills in experimental design, data collection, analysis, and critical reading of primary scientific literature. Students also learn to prepare and communicate scientific information to other scientists and the general public.

Application deadline: February 15, 2020

Summer REU Program in Marine Science at the University of Delaware

Applications are now being accepted for the Summer REU Program in Marine Science at the University of Delaware, an NSF-Funded Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program.

Interns will work with faculty in a research-intensive setting on a research topic in chemical, physical, or biological oceanography, marine biology or marine geology. In addition to hands-on research experience, student support includes a $6,400 stipend, campus housing, and travel assistance.

Supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation’s Division of Ocean Sciences, this REU program supports ten undergraduate students to conduct research in marine science.  The program will take place at the University of Delaware’s Hugh R. Sharp campus in the beach community of Lewes, located on the shores of the Delaware Bay and Atlantic Ocean.

More information and the application can be found on our website. You may also be interested to hear directly from former interns, or see one of our field trips on the R/V Daiber on the Delaware Bay.
