Basic Information
Thanks to the generous support of the National Science Foundation and Emory University, we are organizing a summer Research Experience in Mathematics for the summer of 2013 on the beautiful campus of Emory University (adjacent to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)). We seek to fill 8-10 openings in the REU. Most of the participants will be US citizens or permanent residents who are presently enrolled in a US undergraduate institution or high school. We have offered openings to high school students who are adequately prepared for the program. NSF supported participants will receive a $3600 stipend and free accomodations.2013 Project areas
