Research Experience

Interested in doing research?  Opportunities are available for a variety of majors. 

Pathways to Science list summer research opportunities available to many majors from Art to Sociology.

The National Science Foundation funds a large number of research opportunities for undergraduate students through its REU Sites program. An REU Site consists of a group of ten or so undergraduates who work in the research programs of the host institution. Each student is associated with a specific research project, where he/she works closely with the faculty and other researchers. Students are granted stipends and, in many cases, assistance with housing and travel. Undergraduate students supported with NSF funds must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States or its possessions. An REU Site may be at either a US or foreign location.

Please check with your faculty advisor to see what opportunities are available within your academic department or visit the Internship Database page which lists a variety of internship and research-based experiences.
