We expect funding to begin in Fall 2001 and last five years. Some money is also available for participants to travel to meetings and present their research. REU's are excellent training opportunities for students interested in broadening their knowledge, doing research, or preparing for a Research Award. Any undergraduate who is a full-time student at the Univresity of Texas at Austin, AND a United States national or United States permanent resident, may apply. However, the research being proposed should have a strong mathematics component.
Applicants fill out an information form, including a research proposal.
Research projects should be carried out under the supervision of a faculty member of UT Austin. Two letters of recommendation are required. Faculty research supervisors do not have to be in the Mathematics Department. We'll start these at UT Austin in Summer 2002, but manyuniversities, departments, government agencies and research institutions have 'em going on now. Here's a link .
