The NHERI Research Experiences for Undergraduates program (REU) is a national-class summer research program designed for high-achieving college students seeking to build research skills and enhance their academic resume.
Participants spend 10 weeks at one of NHERI’s university-based facilities, doing hands-on research in areas such as earthquake engineering, wind engineering, tsunami engineering, multihazard engineering, cyber-physical experimentation, natural hazards reconnaissance, cyberinfrastructure and data management, and natural hazards simulation.
Among the benefits of the NHERI REU program:
- Travel funds to and from the research facility
- Housing subsidy to help with living expenses
- Research stipend for summer work
- Research and career experience alongside faculty mentors
- Travel funds to and from the NHERI REU site to present a research project and a chance to network with engineering researchers, scientists, and natural hazards experts
NHERI facilities participating in the 2022 REU program include the following:
