Research Experiences for Undergraduates

The 2014 NSF CMACS workshop
Deadline: October 31, 2013
Are you interested in how cells work? Would you like to know how do they decide to grow, to move, to split, or to die? Do you like working with high-performance computers? Would you like a career in biology, medicine, computer science, or math, or even a career combining all of these fields? Does discovering new things excite you? Every winter Lehman College holds an NSF-sponsored workshop on modeling complex systems, for undergraduate students. The students attending the workshop use and develop software and computational tools to learn about the behavior of biological systems. Each year, students work on a research project involving cutting-edge research.

City Tech's NSF CREST REU
Deadline: March 15, 2013
REU in Satellite and Ground-Based Remote Sensing at the Cooperative Remote Sensing Science and Technology (CREST) Center for CUNY students interested in pursuing graduate education in CREST related sciences. The goals of the CREST REU program are to 1) provide a rich and comprehensive research experience in satellite and ground-based remote sensing; 2) support students to pursue careers in STEM by exposing them to research at the undergraduate level; and 3) inspire students to acquire advanced STEM degrees.

The 2013 Valparaiso Experience in Research by Undergraduate Mathematicians (VERUM).
Deadline Feb 25, 2013
VERUM provides an opportunity for rising sophomore and junior students to engage in a first research experience in mathematics. The VERUM projects for this year will include the following: Mathematical Modeling in Ecology: What Killed the Mammoth?; Statistics: Estimating the Volatility in the Black-Scholes Formula by Multiple Approaches; Graph Labelings

The 2013 CUNY Summer Undergraduate Research Program (C-SURP)
Deadline Feb 15, 2013
C-SURP provides accepted students with a ten-week hands-on research experience in a CUNY faculty lab. Program participants receive a stipend of $3,500, unlimited MetroCards for the duration of the program, and optional free University housing. In addition to participating in laboratory research, students will meet for weekly seminars and activities related to cutting-edge scientific research, graduate school preparation, research integrity and career development.

The 2013 NSF CMACS workshop
Deadline: November 21, 2012
This is a great opportunity for students who think they might be interested in grad school to work with active researchers from a variety of top schools. Participating researchers are from CMU (Ed Clarke, Andre Platzer, and others), University of Pittsburgh (James Faeder), Georgia Tech (Flavio Fenton), Cornell (Robert Gilmour), Stony Brook (James Glimm, Scott Smolka), and NYU (Bud Mishra). The workshop will be led this year by Flavio Fenton of Georgia Tech. The topic will be the study of electrical activity in the heart that results in atrial fibrillation.
