NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU)
The National Science Foundation (NSF) provides numerous research opportunities for undergraduate students through its Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program. In this program, each student is assigned to a specific research project where they contribute directly. REU programs encourage undergraduates to actively participate in research across various fields funded by the NSF. These projects engage students in significant ways, either by involving them in ongoing research or by offering specialized projects created specifically for the REU program.
