Do you have your summer plans yet? No? Well, for those of you interested in exploring computing research a bit more, the National Science Foundation funds a number of Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REUs) at institutions throughout the country (and few international locations as well!). This opportunity will provide travel funds, 8 weeks of room and board, plus a stipend while you work on mentored research with other undergrads under the supervision of faculty at the host institution. Interested in AI? Pen-based computing? Networks? Virtual Reality? How about spending the summer at Virginia Tech, Washington State, Rhode Island, or Miami?
For more information about the REU program, see their information page located on the NSF’s web site. Be sure to plan ahead though, you’ll need letters of recommendation from TCNJ computing faculty, and need to submit an application to each site you wish to apply to.
If you would like to speak to someone about the REU program, please see Dr. DePasquale for more information about past students who have participated!
