Title: REU Informational Session
Abstract: The semester is just starting, but some of you may already be thinking about your summer plans. One opportunity for math majors/minors is to participate in a summer Mathematics REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates). There are many REU programs around the country, involving different research topics, style, and financial support (most people do an REU at a place other than their home university). Most programs have application deadlines in early February. If you want advice on how to choose a good program, how to apply, what an REU might involve, etc., come to the meeting and talk to the students who went through REUs, and faculty who organized them. If you want to come prepared with good questions, look at some possibilities on our web page http://www.math.tamu.edu/undergraduate/research/summer.html
