Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)
The Department of Chemistry REU is currently on hiatus.
Our REU program is a 10-week immersive training program for high-achieving undergraduate students. This NSF funded program is a comprehensive research experience the provides participants with the skills and initial experience need to grow into a successful scientist. Research opportunities span the traditional fields of chemistry, and students will benefit from the department’s ongoing interdisciplinary and collaborative efforts.
