Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU)

Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program

The REU program will run June 2nd-July 25th 2025.

Our department has offered experiences in math research to undergraduates from all over the country for over four decades. Students are selected to participate in research projects during the summer with individual faculty mentors, investigating a wide variety of topics. The   National Science Foundation  supports the program via a   Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)  grant.

Our department hosts a summer REU program in which advanced undergraduates from around the country come to Bloomington for an intense eight-week session of guided individual research projects, augmented by other group activities. IU students are eligible for this program.

Your housing and meals are included. There is a weekly stipend and travel support.

 

Application deadline for full consideration is February 1, 2025
