Research Experiences for Undergraduates - Summer 2004 | ||
---|---|---|
DIMACS REU | DIMACS/DIMATIA REU | |
The program begins with eight weeks of intensive work during the summer of 2004; students are strongly encouraged to continue their projects during the academic year 2004-2005. DIMACS will select ten undergraduates to participate. Participants will have a DIMACS faculty member as a supervisor. Topics will be posted on the DIMACS proposed projects page as mentors become available. A stipend of approximately $3,200 will be provided (depending on choice of housing options) as well as travel (up to $400 with additional funds available on a case by case basis) and housing. This program requires eight weeks of intense effort and on-site participation. Students should not commit to other activities (e.g., courses) during the REU program.
DIMACS is also offering an exchange program between DIMACS and our sister site DIMATIA at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. Click here for more information.
Applicants should be undergraduates with a major in Computer Science, Mathematics, or a closely related field. They should be current juniors (graduating in 2005), although sophomores with exceptionally strong backgrounds will be considered. In exceptional circumstance, seniors will be allowed into the program if they will not have graduated by the time the program begins. Preference will be given to students who will continue their research projects during the academic year, under the direction of either their supervisor or a faculty member from their home institution. Under NSF rules, only U.S. Citizens and Permanent Residents are eligible to receive stipends, housing and travel support. Women, minorities, and disabled students are encouraged to apply.
