Oberlin College Computer Science

About the Program Student participants will work on a research team with other students and a faculty mentor to carry out a research project. Research teams will present their progress to the entire group at various points throughout the summer. In addition, the participants will present the final results of their work at their home institutions during the following academic year and, when appropriate, at regional and/or national conferences.

Program Details:

• Program runs from May 27th through July 31st, 2009

• Students will be paid $4,400 for the ten week summer

• A travel allowance (up to $350) will be provided for students who travel from a distance

• All program participants will live in a DePauw University townhouse

• Housing will be provided at a highly subsidized rate

Eligibility: By NSF Mandate, applicants must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States or its possession and must plan to be full-time undergraduates as of September 2009. An additional requirement for DePauw’s REU program is that applicants must be enrolled at a primarily undergraduate institution (i.e., at a school that does not have a graduate program in computer science).

Applications must be received by March 13. Decisions will be mailed by March 30th.

DIMACS, DyDAn, and the Rutgers University Mathematics Department invite applications for a NSF/DHS Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. DIMACS was founded as one of 24 Science and Technology Centers funded by the NSF. It is located at Rutgers University, and is a joint project of Rutgers, Princeton, AT&T Laboratories, Bell Laboratories, Telcordia Technologies, and the NEC Research Institute. DIMACS has over 250 permanent members in mathematics, computer science, and operations research, and hosts many distinguished visitors each year.

US Program: June 1-July 24    optional trip: Prague Trip: July 20-august 5

Deadline for applications are due January 31, 2009

DIMACS, with National Science Foundation sponsorship, has offered an REU program since 1992. There are four associated REU programs:

• The DIMACS REU program offers projects mentored by DIMACS members.
• The DIMACS/DIMATIA REU program offers projects mentored by DIMACS members, the program is extended by two weeks, and the last two and a half weeks of the program are spent at our sister site DIMATIA at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. Students selected to participate in this program generally exhibit strong interests in combinatorics.
• The Rutgers Math Department program offers projects mentored by members of the Rutgers Mathematics Department.
• The DyDAn REU program offers projects related to homeland security mentored by DyDAn researchers.
