APPLYING Students may apply directly to REU Sites and should consult the directory of active REU Sites on the Web at {Link without Title} . REU sites typically consist of ten undergraduates working in the research program of the host institution either in the US or abroad, for example, CERN . As the program is funded by the NSF, undergraduates must be citizens or permanent residents of the US or its possessions. Applications are typically due between January and March. Students are generally provided with a modest stipend, housing, and transportation to and from the site. Many program proposals state that preference is given to women applicants and students from universities with no active research programs. HISTORY The precursor to the REU program was the NSF-funded URP, which ran through the 1970s. EXTERNAL LINKS |
