More Information
NSF 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.
The page on Computer and Information Science and Engineering NSF REU sites has a list of programs for this upcoming summer. There are programs available nearby at Harvey Mudd, USC, UC Santa Cruz, UC Berkeley as well as just about every state such as New York, Texas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Utah, Virginia, etc.
In the sections below, you'll find a description of some of these.
Marquette University's Summer 2012 Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program will run for ten weeks (May 29 to Aug 3, 2012). This program provides U.S. undergraduates with an intensive, faculty-mentored, summer research experience in the areas of applied mathematics, high-performance computing, statistics, ubiquitous and embedded systems and mathematics / CS education. Our target audience is undergraduates of all levels majoring in mathematics, statistics, computer science, or related areas.
Program details, including online application materials and project descriptions from three previous summers, can be found at Marquette University's Summer 2012 Research Experience for Undergraduates website. The application deadline is March 9th, 2012.
The Summer 2012 offering of the University of Alabama (UA) Research Experience for Undergraduates in Empirical Software Engineering (REU-ESE) spans nine weeks (May 30 to August 1) and offers research and professional development opportunities for 10 undergraduate students. Available research projects share the theme of empirical software engineering and span several exciting areas of inquiry, including text retrieval based feature location, code clone evolution, software engineering techniques and tools for computational science & engineering, and open-source developer communities.
REU-ESE participants will conduct empirical studies. That is, they first will use observation to collect and analyze data and experience and then will synthesize that data to discover, characterize, and evaluate relationships between software development artifacts, techniques, and tools.
The REU-ESE 2012 website has complete details about the program, including an online application that must be submitted by the deadline of March 15, 2012.
