[iva] Research Experience for Undergraduates in Computer and Data Science

[Chaspari, Theodora]

Texas A&M University is now accepting applications for a 10-week summer undergraduate research program in the general area of computer and data science, generously funded by a gift from Google, LLC.

Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) participants will be assigned to a Texas A&M faculty mentor and will work closely with a Texas A&M graduate student or postdoctoral researcher to perform cutting-edge research in computer systems or data science.

In the summer of 2023, we will be partnering with REUs at Rice University and Prairie View A&M University. The summer will start with a joint kick-off program and end with a shared research symposium. During the summer, there will be workshops on conducting research, reading papers, preparing scientific posters, as well as research, career and technical talks.

Eligibility

  *   Students must be at least 18 years old by the time the program starts.
