program Description

Program Activities: This REU program, running from May 18th to July 10th, 2026, will provide undergraduate students with an engaging collaborative research experience in broad areas of Applied Mathematics, including Financial Mathematics, Biomathematics, Mathematical Fluid Dynamics, and Geophysics.

Students will be prepared for their research through an intensive workshop on computing with a programing language like MATLAB or python. Students will also participate in a workshop on mathematical writing using LaTeX. They will receive instruction on delivering effective presentations, preparing posters, and writing research papers. Students will have the opportunity to disseminate their research findings through presentations at mathematics and interdisciplinary conferences, as well as publication in open-access journals. The REU program will also provide guidance on the graduate school application process.

Eligibility: NSF-funded positions require US citizenship or permanent residency. Applicants must be undergraduates without a bachelor's degree (preferably in their second or third year) and not graduating before the program ends. Completion of the Calculus series, Linear Algebra, and Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) with a grade of B or higher is required.
