Nanoscience and Microsystems (NSMS) REU Program

The NanoScience and MicroSystems REU held at the University of New Mexico is a 10-week summer research program for students majoring in Materials Science and Engineering, Chemical, Biomedical, Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, Chemistry, Physics and Biochemistry.

Spend your summer at The University of New Mexico performing cutting-edge research in world-class laboratories. Focus on an in-depth research project while exploring multidisciplinary research topics and honing your science communication skills.

Participants are part of a large, diverse research community through organized and informal interactions with students, mentors, and faculty.  We provide a focused effort for mentoring and training undergraduates in several exciting branches of science and engineering, including biomaterials, materials science, nanotechnology, robotics, computer science, and energy and the environment. See the Program Details page for the REU program workshops, seminars and project deliverables. The Research Areas page describes the research centers or institutes that fund REU students.
