Other REU-related Resources:

• The National Science Foundation REU homepage.
  The comprehensive list of those REU programs recieving NSF funding.
  
  
• A list of Internships and Research Opportunities, maintained by University of Pennsylvania.
  An extensive list, geared towards physics, arranged both by science topic as well as by State, and including some Government as well as Corporate programs not listed on the NSF-REU page. Note that the information may be old (1998); but nevertheless, an excellent resource.
  
  
• A list of Extramural Research Opportunites maintained by Yale.
  Be aware that it is not comprehensive.
  
  
• A 1999 Guide to REUs by the New England Consortium for Undergraduate Science Education (NECUSE).
  From the year 1999, but still a potentially useful resource.
  
  
• Summer REU Programs in Mathematics
  A current list, maintained by the American Mathematical Society.
  
  
• "EDGE": Enhancing Diversity in Graduate Education
  An NSF-funded summer program for women and minorities in Mathematics, who wish to advance to grad school. See a recent (2003) article for more info.
  
  
• Summer Math Program for Women Undergraduates
  An NSF REU hosted at Carleton College, Minnesota.
  
  
• Program for Women in Mathematics
  Sponsored by Princeton University and the Institute for Advanced Study. Two-week summer program for women at all university levels.
