1. Offers are made via e-mail only.
2. Only the selected and accepted applicants will be announced in the space below.
3. Because of the large number of applications we receive, we do not contact applicants who have not been accepted to the program.
4. We use a rolling acceptance, and make offers to a greater number of students than we have spots for because many students have applied to multiple schools. Under no circumstance should you accept an offer from an REU program unless you are committed to that program. When you say ‘yes’ to a position in a professional setting, you should mean it.
5. In general, you have a week or so to make up your mind. By all means, you should contact other programs to which you have applied with this offer, if you have decided there are programs whose offer you will take over ours.

The University of Michigan REU Site in Chemistry provides a full time research experience in any of our
research groups. The faculty consider the REU to be one of out most important activities because these are exactly the type of programs that got all of us interested in science in the first place!

…

 

Please review the research interests of the faculty at the department’s web site. You should assume that many, many possible REU projects exist in everyone’s group. All projects will be supervised one-on-one by a graduate student or postdoctoral mentor.

 

Descriptions of research clusters /fields of study and associated faculty will give you a good overview of the research areas available to you.

 

…

 

We actively welcome and hold the majority of our spots for students from undergraduate-oriented and community college settings where graduate level research experiences do not exist, and for students from other under-resourced settings.

 

…

 

The U-M Chemistry graduate program is also one of the most broadly demographically diverse departments in the country, and we are completely committed to supporting and promoting a welcome and high-value environment for all of our students.
