The University of Cincinnati’s Chemistry REU helps students build research skills and develop as emerging professionals and independent scientists. Participants will learn about real-life challenges that scientists are currently addressing, such as “Data Science for Big Data in Chemistry” and “Sustainable Chemistry.” Both chemistry and biochemistry research projects are available.
Students will also work closely with faculty and graduate students while working on their research project, each of which has been designed to have a tangible result during the ten-week program, running from May 30th to August 4th.
The program also includes a weekly discussion series and an end of program poster session to highlight the results of students research. A stipend of $6,000 will be awarded to each student in the program, as well as housing and meals on UC’s campus.

Colorado State University and UC Berkeley are cohosting a summer Research Experience for Undergrads (REU) in Summer 2023. This REU focuses on extreme ultraviolet high power lasers and their applications, including materials science, chemistry, physics, and engineering. REU programs are sponsored by the NSF and provide an excellent opportunity for undergraduate students to get hands-on experience working in active research labs- a great asset to list on your resume or graduate school application.
Students accepted to this 10-week REU program will conduct research at either the Extreme Ultraviolet Engineering Research Center (EUV ERC) at Colorado State University or at University of California, Berkeley.
Each student will be assigned a mentor to guide them throughout the project. This EUV REU program will provide students with a unique opportunity designed for them to better understand EUV science and technology and to become involved in groundbreaking EUV-related research that is technically and scientifically challenging, and highly interdisciplinary.
Participants will be provided with a $5000 stipend, housing, and some meals.
More specific details can be found in this project descriptions document.
The application deadline is February 22, 2023.
