The University of Rochester is one of the smallest and most collegiate schools among the nation’s top research universities. Our goal is to develop students as researchers, collaborators, and mentors for academia and industry.

The Kearns Center provides academic advising and coordinates professional and social activities for many summer research programs within AS&E, including four National Science Foundation (NSF) REU programs:

Advancing Human Health, From Nano to Network

Computational Methods for Understanding Music, Media, and Minds

Nano-, Bio-, and Quantum Photonics

Physics

Our best research students come through recommendations from faculty and fellow students who recognize talent at all levels.

NSF REU students receive:

A $4,500 research stipend

Round-trip travel/travel reimbursement

On-campus housing and meal plan

An assigned advisor and mentor

GRE test preparation classes

Graduate school preparation seminars

Instruction in research methods

One credit of academic coursework

Complimentary tickets to local museums, sporting events, and/or concerts

The Advancing Human Health, from Nano to Network program is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and is currently in a renewal year. Program operation for Summer 2020 is contingent upon successfully being renewed by the National Science Foundation.
