Description
PSU's REU program provides opportunities for undergraduate students--with an emphasis on underrepresented minorities and females--to be involved in research projects with the faculty at PSU. This program allows students to quickly engage in actual research work in a multidisciplinary environment, but will also train the students in using microscopy and microanalysis techniques for materials characterization.
This program consists of 8 weeks of full-time research, a week long training seminar at the beginning of the program, and ethics seminars throughout the course of the summer. There are regular group meetings every two weeks for participants to connect with one another and share their research as well as a field trip to a local high-tech company like FEI Company or Intel. Lastly, participants will give a formal presentation at the end of the summer in the REU Summer Symposium.
