REU Internship Program - Summer 2008
The 2008 National Science Foundation's Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program went for 10 weeks from June 9 through August 15 at CMOP. The summer internship provided undergraduates an opportunity to conduct research in a "graduate school" setting. Students worked with mentors in research labs, cruises, presentations, and a variety of activities.
