Join the UMD-MRSEC for a life-changing summer research experience! We offer exciting research internship opportunities for undergraduate students currently in their sophomore or junior year with a strong interest in physics, chemistry, and engineering. Approximately 7 - 10 summer undergraduate research fellowships, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the University of Maryland, will be awarded for summer 2011. Work with faculty and graduate students to enhance your research skills. Network with cutting-edge researchers, visit national labs, and get to know Washington, DC! Download the 2011 UMD-MRSEC REU Flyer.

The program runs from June 6, 2011 - August 12, 2011. During the ten-week period, students will work with MRSEC faculty on interdisciplinary materials research projects involving chemistry, physics, materials science, and engineering. See the 2011 Projects. Applicants must be US citizens or permanent residents. Students from underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged to apply. No previous research experience is required to participate in the program. Please see website for more information.
