The Furman REU program is designed for students to work in a dynamic research environment during an intensive ten-week summer experience and to be able to continue this work into the academic year with your favorite instructor. Students of under-represented minority groups are especially encouraged to participate. Participating students must be:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Citizens or permanent residents of the United States;<\/li>\n<li>Majoring in, or intend to major in, chemistry or a related field. Generally, students must not receive a four-year college degree prior to December 2022, but due to COVID there may be an opportunity for students who are graduating this spring.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Faculty<\/strong>: We will provide you with a fellowship, laboratory space, funding for supplies and congenial colleagues who will renew your excitement in science. We invite you and a student to come and explore your own research ideas or collaborate with our research groups.<\/p>\n<p>Applications are accepted from <strong>TEAMS composed of faculty and student(s)<\/strong>. Students may NOT apply individually to the program.<\/p>\n<table border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"2\" cellpadding=\"10\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td align=\"center\" valign=\"top\" width=\"50%\">For information about the Furman REU program,<br \/>\ndownload our brochure (PDF)<strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<a class=\"button\" style=\"font-family: inherit;font-size: inherit\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpressmu-1266771-5793343.cloudwaysapps.com\/academics\/chemistry\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2022\/02\/REU_2022_brochure.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brochure<\/a><\/td>\n<td align=\"center\" valign=\"top\" width=\"50%\">Visiting research teams must submit<br \/>\napplications (DOCX) by<strong> March 14, 2022<br \/>\n<\/strong><br \/>\n<a class=\"button\" href=\"https:\/\/wordpressmu-1266771-5793343.cloudwaysapps.com\/academics\/chemistry\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/85\/2022\/02\/REU_2022_application.docx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Application<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Please complete the application and add signatures.
