INTERDISCIPLINARY MATERIALS RESEARCH, RESEARCH EXPERIENCE FOR UNDERGRADUATES

We are pleased to report that the REU program in materials at SIUC has been funded by the NSF for another three year cycle, and we are now welcoming applications for the Summer 2024 cycle! Southern Illinois University will sponsor research opportunities for undergraduates in disciplines related to Interdisciplinary Materials Research in Chemistry, Physics, and Engineering during the summer of 2024. The REU Program is principally focused on providing students with the opportunity to perform research at the forefront of materials science and engineering.  Potential projects span a broad range of topics under the guidance of faculty from the schools of Chemistry & Biochemistry, Physics, Engineering, and Microbiology.  The available research topics are chosen to complement the research of associated faculty. We will update information as it becomes available.

• In order to be eligible, students must be U.S. citizens or permanent residents.
