The Functional Materials Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) at the University of South Florida is accepting applications through Feb. 1.
It provides undergraduate students majoring in chemistry, biochemistry, and other chemistry-adjacent fields with the opportunity to participate in a 10-week summer research experience in functional materials.
Students will be guided by faculty and graduate students through a combination of laboratory work and workshops, live on campus in a dorm and receive a $700 weekly stipend.
The program will run from May 17 to July 23 and is accepting eight students. Students without prior research experience and those with no research opportunities at their home schools (including community colleges) are heavily prioritized in the application process.
Applicants must be United States citizens, nationals, or permanent residents currently enrolled in a chemistry-related field and be able to submit a copy of their undergraduate transcript, an up-to-date CV or resume, a letter of interest, and two letters of recommendation.
