Math Club Info session on research programs for undergraduates: REUs and UCARE
Does the idea of applying your math skills outside of the classroom interest you? Did you know that you can earn a stipend to engage in research while you study right here at UNL? Have you considered traveling to other locations around the country to meet like-minded students and do research together? If so, you should highly consider applying for a UCARE or REU project! A panel of students will share their research experiences, explaining how to bring your math major to a new level with research and allowing you to get a better understanding of the UCARE and REU application process.
