Fellowships, Internships, and Summer Research

• An REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) is an NSF sponsored program where departments host groups of 10 to 20 undergraduates to do research over the summer. Most REU programs provide travel, room and board, and a small stipend. It is a fun way to spend the summer, and a good resume builder (especially if you plan to go to grad school).
