E3S Commitment to Diversity: E3S is committed to broadening participation in science and engineering. We strongly encourage students from historically under-represented groups in science and engineering to apply to our internship program, including students who are socioeconomically disadvantaged, first-generation college students, or have limited access to undergraduate research in their undergraduate constitutions.  Our program is designed to promote future student success by providing support through mentoring, leadership training and various networking activities. 

For additional information, join us for our upcoming online webinar to learn more about the application process. We will have online info sessions on December 2, January 19, and January 25.  Use this time to hear more about E3S REU and ask any questions you may have about the application.  RSVP online at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2016E3SInfoSession
