REU Summer 2018 Opportunity

Good afternoon colleagues

Have any undergraduates looking for a summer REU program in sunny Miami Florida?

This summer Florida International University will offer a variation of great projects, including chemistry education. Information about the program can be found at: https://chemistry.fiu.edu/undergraduate/reu/

The application deadline is March 1st!

The main objective of the REU program is to expose undergraduate students to interdisciplinary research in the field of sensing, monitoring and detection.

During the 10 week program, from 5/21/2018 to 7/28/2018, the participants will closely work with faculty on cutting edge research projects. Beside full time research, participants will be involved in weekly seminars and workshops focused on modern problems in the chemistry of sensing, monitoring and detection, ethics in science, professional growth, and the role of the scientist in modern society.

The REU program provides a $ 5,200 summer stipend. In addition, housing and travel, (including travel for presentation of work in conferences) is provided by the program. Sophomore, junior, and rising senior students are encouraged to apply.
Please feel free to pass this information on to your colleagues and students who might be interested.

Sincerely

Sonia Underwood
