 Information on CBB REU program can be found at: https://cbb.cornell.edu/students

 The CBB program is aimed at promoting diversity in the STEM fields. Students who share this goal, especially from underrepresented minority groups, economically disadvantaged backgrounds, or who are first generation in their families to attend college are encouraged to apply. 

 The REU program is open, by NSF regulation, only to US citizens and permanent residents. If accepted, you will be required to show proof of citizenship or permanent residency. This program is intended primarily for sophomore and junior students in science and engineering. In exceptional cases first year students could have enough familiarity with physics, engineering, or computer science to profit from their research experience. Students who have not yet enrolled as undergraduates and students who will have a Bachelors degree by the summer of 2022 are not eligible according to NSF regulations. If accepted, you will have to show proof of health insurance coverage for the period of the REU Program. 

 

Your application should include: 

- Personal statement describing your experience, skills, interests and goals, and what aspect of the research at CLASSE or CBB is of special interest to you, are required; 

- An electronic transcript from your university (a scanned copy is acceptable, however we may request an original at a later time); 

- Two letters of recommendation from individuals, at least one from a professor, who are familiar with your potential for research. 

 Applications completed after midnight EST Sunday, January 30, 2022 may not be considered. 

Familiarize yourself with Cornell’s COVID-19 workplace guidance as well as the university’s COVID-19 services and information.
