Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program @ Stanford/ IBM ARC/ UC Davis/ UC Berkeley
The Center on Polymer Interfaces and Macromolecular Assemblies (CPIMA) provides qualified undergraduates in chemical engineering, chemistry, materials science, physics, and related fields with a ten week summer research opportunity. The SURE program allows students to work on independent research projects involving direct interaction with research scientists, post-doctoral scholars, and graduate students at Stanford University, IBM Almaden, University of California - Berkeley, University of California - Davis, or a CPIMA Industrial Affiliate. Students participate in a number of SURE activities including the CPIMA Forum where they present their summer research in a poster.
