Company Profile

Experienced faculty mentors will guide students in 10 weeks of undergraduate research to develop research skills and independence. Projects include materials for energy storage production, energy-efficient material production, and storage of energy waste products. Lunch-and-learn meetings will cover responsible conduct of research, technical presentation skills, and habits of mind. Weekly field trips will introduce students to local energy-related companies technologies. Application deadline: ...

Engineered Bioactive Interfaces and Devices focuses on the novel design of architectures that interact with biological systems and promote the desired response. These advanced architectures have numerous applications ranging from tissue engineering, to sensing systems, to drug delivery. REU students will have the opportunity to learn about three cross-disciplinary research themes that form the foundation of the research in this area. They include 1) Novel Bioactive Architectures , 2) Cell/Protein ...

The impacts of changing environmental conditions are becoming increasingly apparent with sea-level rise and increases in the number of extreme weather-related events such as floods, wildfires, droughts and storms. An interdisciplinary approach to solving the complex interconnections of the atmosphere, oceans, and land is needed. Urban systems also play an important role, as approximately 80% of the U.S. population lives in cities, and cities are especially prone to negative effects such as ...

The intellectual theme of the Dauphin Island Sea Lab REU program is understanding how marine and estuarine ecosystems and living resources respond to disturbance. Under this theme, we provide semi-independent research experiences across disciplines in coastal ecology (plant, invertebrate, fish, mammal), toxicology, microbiology and biological, chemical, physical and geological oceanography. The integration of field and lab-based studies across disciplines, proximity to a range of ecosystems, ...

Since 1990, The Shannon Point Marine Center (SPMC) has administered an annual NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program in marine science. Each summer, eight selected students spent nine weeks at SPMC conducting original research with a faculty adviser, participating in professional development activities, and engaging in outreach events. At the end of the session, students produce a written and an oral report based on the results of their research. Student research projects ...

The National Science Foundation (NSF) and Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR) funded Collaborative Approaches among Scientists and Engineers (CASE) Research Experience is a 10-week research program for undergraduates located at Auburn University. Field and laboratory research projects are available for students majoring in STEM disciplines including chemistry, biology, physics, and all branches of engineering. The multidisciplinary nature of STEM disciplines allows ...

This Research Experience for Undergraduates opportunity takes place at the Cornell Nanoscale Facility (CNF) at Cornell or MIT.Nano at MIT, although it is coordinated from Cornell. All positions are accessed via this application. SUPREME is a JUMP 2.0 research program sponsored by SRC/DARPA for advanced nanoelectronic devices and materials (https://supreme.cornell.edu/) . The SUPREME REU program, funded by NSF, gives talented undergraduates an opportunity to join these research activities at ...

The REU on Sustainable Land and Water Resources introduces undergraduate students to the key elements of research on land and water resources that are essential to improving management practices, with a focus on community-based participatory research and diverse interdisciplinary research teams. Students work on one of three teams on projects that explore the integrated community of the Earth s land and water, including its living beings and relatives - plants, animals, and people. This opportunity ...

The Program in Climate and Space Science Observation (PICASSO) at the University of Michigan seeks to engage a highly-motivated and collaborative cohort of undergraduate students to participate in its summer Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site program titled: Program in Climate and Space Science Observation (PICASSO). This REU program is funded by a grant from the National Science Foundation. The program is open to undergraduate students from any academic discipline who are interested ...

The Research Theme of the REU Site is the ecology of coastal ecosystems across gradients of human impact. Specifically, our research looks at coastal ecosystems ecology, environmental aquatic chemistry, and the connections among the Everglades wetlands, coastal mangrove forests, seagrass beds and shallow water coral reefs. Our goal is to detect the sources, transport and transformation of environmental stressors and the ecosystem responses under rapid changing climate and land-use. The hydrologic ...
