LINKS TO SUMMER RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES
The links below connect to a variety of physics-related websites. Some of these websites provide information on NSF-sponsored REUs (National Science Foundation sponsored Research Experiences for Undergraduates). REUs are usually held at a University, College or National Laboratory over the summer and are typically ten weeks in length. REUs include research opportunities in a variety of fields such as physics, biology, chemistry, and math. REUs are paid (usually $2000-$4000 for the ten week period) and may sometimes include free on-campus housing or a subsidized meal plan. REUs can be found at Universities and Colleges all over the US and abroad as well.
Some of the other links below connect to the physics department at a particular University or College. These websites often provide information on reserach, internships, and graduate schools. If you have suggestions for websites that should be added to this list, please contact David Cook, Department of Physics. Similarly, if you have found that a link does not work (and you know how to repair the problem), please contact David Cook.
