CC-REU Opportunity

April 7, 2021

The​ Central Convergence Research Experiences for Undergraduates (CC-REU,www.cwu.edu/reu/CCREU) is a summer program with research across a broad range of mathematical topics including topology, number theory, applied math, probability, and statistics. Interlaced with the mathematical research projects are professional development training, seminars by guest mathematicians, and field trips to local sites. Students will give presentations at the CC-REU research symposium and produce a written report suitable for publication. Students will also be eligible for travel funding to present their results at regional or national mathematics conferences after the summer program. Given our current pandemic situation, CC-REU in 2021 will be conducted fully virtually. The program is a full-time eight-and-a-half-week summer research program, running June 28 – August 24, 2021.

Additional details:

Eligibility: The National Science Foundation requires every REU participant to be a US citizen or permanent resident. In addition, all participants must return to their undergraduate institution after the REU and be full-time undergraduate students in Fall 2021. We especially encourage students from groups traditionally underrepresented in STEM and early career students (students with two or three years remaining of their degree) to apply. Participant support: Undergraduates accepted for this research experience will be eligible for a $5,100 stipend, additional weekly substance support that we are still working to finalize, and up to $1000 in travel funds to support travel to national research conferences in 2021-2022. Participant Expectations: CC-REU is a full-time eight-and-a-half-week summer research program. Student participants are expected to commit at least 40 hours every week the program is in session and, as such, should not commit to other activities (such as courses or part-time jobs) during the REU program.

Apply Now, applications will be reviewed beginning April 15th.
