| Eligibility: |
Our REU Program is oriented towards students who have completed at least
two semesters each of biology, general chemistry, and organic chemistry,
with a cumulative grade point average of 3.2 or higher at the end of the
Spring 2007 term. Students who will graduate at the end of the Spring
2007 term are not eligible for this program. Participants must be either
U.S. citizens or permanent residents of the U.S. or its possessions (NSF
requirement). Students from groups that are traditionally
under-represented in science (women, under-represented ethnic and racial
minorities, and those with physical challenges) are especially
encouraged to apply. Also, students from smaller undergraduate
institutions with limited opportunities for research are encouraged to
apply. |
