ALT Summer research programs. Screen shot of database. Go to www.cientificolatino.com/reu Text reads: Research experiences for undergraduates (REUs, also known as SURPs or SURFs) are paid summer internships, usually for 6-8 weeks (sometimes including housing) at research institutions. Undergraduates are paired with a lab and gain valuable research experience. These are extremely helpful for obtaining post-graduate jobs in STEM and applying to graduate or professional schools. REU application deadlines are approaching! Will you be applying this year? Our database contains more than 450 SURP programs!
