NSF Research Experience for Undergraduate Scholarship

NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates (NSF REUs) support intensive summer research at U.S. institutions or international locations for undergraduates in STEM. Students work closely with faculty mentors, researchers, and other undergraduate students on research projects that fit their interests and qualifications. Students are awarded stipends and in many cases funding and assistance with housing and travel. Students can review the information from individual REU sites for selection criteria and necessary qualifications.

• U.S. citizens and permanent residents
• Undergraduates pursuing a bachelor’s degree who will have completed their first year of undergrad by the start of the NSF REU and will not be graduating before the start of the program.
• See individual REU sites for more information on eligibility, selection criteria, application materials, and the application deadlines.
