IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PROPOSERS

All proposals must be submitted in accordance with the requirements specified in
this funding opportunity and in the NSF Proposal & Award Policies & Procedures
Guide (PAPPG) that is in effect for the relevant due date to which the proposal
is being submitted. It is the responsibility of the proposer to ensure that the
proposal meets these requirements. Submitting a proposal prior to a specified
deadline does not negate this requirement.

Supports intensive research by undergraduate students in any NSF-funded area of
research. REU Sites engage a cohort of students in research projects related to
a theme. REU Supplements engage students in research related to a new or ongoing
NSF research award.

Sites and Supplements

Supports intensive research by undergraduate students in any NSF-funded area of
research. REU Sites engage a cohort of students in research projects related to
a theme. REU Supplements engage students in research related to a new or ongoing
NSF research award.


SYNOPSIS

The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program supports active
research participation by undergraduate students in any of the areas of research
funded by the National Science Foundation. REU projects involve students in
meaningful ways in ongoing research programs or in research projects
specifically designed for the REU program. This solicitation features two
mechanisms for supporting student research:

 * REU Sites are based on independent proposals to initiate and conduct projects
   that engage a number of students in research. REU Sites may be based in a
   single discipline or academic department or may offer interdisciplinary or
   multi-department research opportunities with a coherent intellectual theme.
 * REU Supplements may be included as a component of proposals for new or
   renewal NSF grants or cooperative agreements or may be requested for ongoing
   NSF-funded research projects.

REU projects with an international dimension are welcome.

Undergraduate student participants in either REU Sites or REU Supplements must
be U.S. citizens, U.S. nationals, or U.S. permanent residents.

Students do not apply to NSF to participate in REU activities, and NSF does not
select students for the opportunities. Investigators who receive REU awards
establish their own process for receiving and reviewing applications and
selecting students, and students follow the instructions provided by each REU
Site or REU Supplement to apply. (In some cases, investigators pre-select
students for REU Supplements.) To identify appropriate REU Sites, students
should consult the directory of active REU Sites on the Web at
https://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/reu_search.cfm.
