U.S. National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduate Students (NSF REUs)
For undergraduates interested in science research. NSF funds a large number of research opportunities for undergraduate students through its REU Sites program.

Each student is associated with a specific research project, where he/she works closely with the faculty and other researchers. Students must search the database for sites seeking researchers.
