The Institute of Ecosystem Studies' Research Experiences for
Undergraduates (REU) program is a 12-week summer program that gives students
what for most is their first opportunity to conduct independent research
as part of a research community. As participants design and complete their
own research projects they consult with other scientists, present their
plans for critique, and then speak in the annual Undergraduate Research
Symposium and write a paper for a peer-reviewed IES Occasional Publication.
