The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) in Marine and Estuarine Science program at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (UMES) offers paid, ten-week summer internships to undergraduates interested in Marine and Estuarine Sciences. With the
assistance of faculty mentors, program staff and graduate students, interns conduct research projects, take field trips, and attend seminars and workshops related to science careers. The program provides housing, meals, travel costs and a stipend
to interns.
This internship program is designed for rising sophomores and rising juniors, but all college students are welcome to apply. The number of positions will depend on current funding availability.
Since 2009, the REU program at UMES has trained more than 123 undergraduate students from more than 60 institutions in the Marine and Estuarine Sciences
The Program will run from May 31, 2021 to August 6, 2021. Applications will be accepted through February 28, 2021.
