Each summer the Department of Physics at Purdue runs a National Science Foundation funded Research Experience for Undergraduates program. The 2024-year's 10 week program runs from May 28 (9am) until August 02 (5pm), 2024. Applications will be accepted until all position are filled. However, since we begin reviewing applications in early February, please apply before February 1 for full consideration. Allowances may be made on individual basis for students whose Summer Break begins after this start date, however, the ending date may be impossible to shift.

The main goal of the program is to give undergraduates an opportunity to participate in a forefront research project.
