Applications for IMOD’s 2026 Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) will open on November 1, 2025! This is a great opportunity for students—especially those in chemistry, materials science, engineering, or physics—to gain hands-on research experience in optoelectronics across IMOD’s network of research sites.
Participants embark on a nine- to ten-week immersive research project during the summer in a single IMOD research lab and produce an abstract and poster summarizing their work. Students may be placed at a number of different participating IMOD labs and will participate in shared virtual seminars and symposia and will become members of the IMOD community.
