About us
The internship also includes a scientific communications workshop, educational seminars and social activities. At the end of the 10-week program, students present their research results to the group. The REU program will cover flights to and from the internship location in Buffalo, N.Y. and housing in the University at Buffalo dormitories if we are able to hold an on-site program. In the event that we are unable to host an on-site program, we are prepared to hold a virtual internship. This will include remote training and individualized research projects.

- A $6,000 stipend in addition to housing and travel expenses.
- An authentic full-time research experience with hands-on training.
- Regular workshops on scientific presentation skills throughout the summer.
- Seminars on current research and introductory courses on data-driven approaches, materials science, and python for machine learning.
- Professional development activities, career mentoring, and social events.
- Networking with leading researchers, scientists and educators through workshops and conferences, including the Erich Bloch Symposium hosted by the Department of Materials Design and Innovation.
