West Virginia University REU

The 2019 NSF-funded REU Site: Research in Chemistry at West Virginia University (May 19-July 26, 2019) is now accepting applications from undergraduates who 1) are majoring in chemistry or biochemistry (pre-majors also considered), 2) are citizens, nationals, or permanent residents of the U.S. or its territories, and 3) are interested in a research and training experience akin to that of a graduate student. Selected participants spend 10-weeks researching on projects that address fundamental questions related to the chemistry of health and catalysis in chemistry. Projects focus on the potential of research to benefit society both directly and indirectly in the fields of health care, forensics/criminology, energy, sustainability, and transportation. Participant benefits include $5,000 stipend, lodging, meal expenses, and travel reimbursement to/from the Site. Regular review of completed applications will begin on March 1, 2019. Prior to March 1, completed applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis and offers made. For more information and link to the online application, visit the Chemistry REU website https://undergraduateresearch.wvu.edu/research-opportunities/wvu-opportunities/reu-site-research-in-chemistry-at-wvu. Questions? Contact the ChemREU@mail.wvu.edu.

Applications are open (until March 1) for the Chemistry REU Site (see below) to held at West Virginia University (WVU) in summer 2019 pending NSF’s fulfillment for recommendation of funding.

Students from groups underrepresented within their disciplines (e.g., women, underrepresented minorities, students with disabilities), veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces, first generation students and students from socioeconomically depressed regions (e.g., Appalachia) are especially encouraged to apply. In addition,  RISING SOPHOMORES are encouraged to apply!

Vanderbilt University Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates in Nanoscience and Engineering

MIT Materials Research Laboratory and the Materials Research Science & Engineering Center summer internship

The MIT Materials Research Laboratory and the Materials Research Science & Engineering Center sponsor a summer research internship program for rising junior and senior undergraduates in the science and engineering fields. We would be grateful if you would bring it to the attention of your students by posting or forwarding the attached flyer where your students will see it, or pass it on to an appropriate department for posting.  

This challenging program brings promising students to MIT to learn and perform research in laboratories in a broad selection of materials science subfields. In addition to providing a stipend and round-trip travel expenses, we host presentations and group discussions on topics relevant to materials scientists, such as graduate school, careers in materials science, creating effective poster presentations, and management of intellectual property. At the conclusion of the program, the students present their individual research results at a poster session. The summer research internship, offered each year since 1983, affords students an invaluable experience in top-notch cutting edge research.
