Status of REUfest 2011

January 7th, 2011 Posted in Uncategorized

Hello all! We have been getting a lot of inquiries about this upcoming summer, and we wanted to post an update on the status of REUfest. We have applied to continue the program for 3 more years, but this application is currently on hold. Because Congress did not pass a budget last year, the National Science Foundation (who funds the REU programs) is operating under a Continuing Resolution and so doesn’t know how much they will have to fund REU programs.

That said, we will still have at least two internships available for this summer, and more if we receive continued funding. The new application materials should be available today or tomorrow. Thanks for your patience!
