Hello fellow STEM students! I have been working on this list of REU's for a few days and this is what I came up with! REU stands for Research Experience for Undergrads. Most encourage juniors and seniors to apply but many also consider sophomores as great candidates as well! What's great about these is you get to travel to another city, do research and to meet new people from around the nation! Most of these are paid internships and include housing and so forth. I broke it down to majors and due dates for everyone to quickly find what they're looking for. I recommend choosing a few and applying to them. Most are due on the 15th of next month and you have to send out transcripts and have letters of recommendations done so get on it!!!!

If you're looking more specific to your area of study just Google and put (your major/area of study) REU and 2013 to find the ones being offered this summer!

Good luck to all, Khadidja Meghoufi
