The program includes both individual research and group activities. Each student will be assisted by a faculty adviser and some also by a graduate-student adviser. Group activities include seminars and other social and professional events. Students are encouraged to continue their research during the following academic year, under the direction of their summer mentor or another faculty member.
For math department research topics see the math projects page. For Dimacs research topics see the DIMACS projects page.
Our program is run jointly at Rutgers with the DIMACS/DIMATIA REU. See the joint homepage for important details.
Visit the calendar of REU events and the list of participants. (These two webpages are not yet available at this time.)
Women, members of minorities, and students with disabilities are strongly encouraged to apply.
Participating undergraduates receive free on-campus housing and a stipend of $3,300 if they choose to live in a double room (or to choose not to use the free housing provided), $2,400 if they choose to live in a single room. We also pay certain travel expenses. Under NSF rules, only citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. are eligible to receive stipends; we do not accept other students even if they would be willing to waive stipend.
