Cyberinfrastructure (CI) Research 4 Social Change

Description

The National Science Foundation Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site: Cyberinfrastructure (CI) Research for Social Change is engaging 10 undergraduate students each summer for nine weeks in solving real-world problems of national relevance, teaching them to not only be critical thinkers, but to be creative and reflective as well.

Students gain skills in advanced programming and problem solving and use the CI to conduct cutting-edge research in engineering, science, and computational medicine. Research projects emphasize advanced computing as a tool to power discoveries that will impact social change for future generations.

Eligibility

  • Enrolled as an undergraduate student in good standing and plan to complete an undergraduate degree program at a U.S. college or university.
  • At least 18 years of age at the start of the program.
  • A U.S. citizen or permanent resident of the U.S. Contingent on funding, this site may sponsor one additional participant that does not meet this criteria (with non-REU funds).
