REU Student Experiences

The Institute for NanoBioTechnology has been proudly hosting undergraduate students in the  Nanotechnology for Biology and Bioengineering Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program since 2008. Participants spend most of their time with mentors on their research project and building laboratory skills. However, the program administrators schedules events and activities that students are required to attend, including weekly journal club meetings and workshops on topics that range from applying to graduate school and graduate life, how research is brought to the market, and communicating scientific research. Additionally, we schedule field trips to other research facilities. Students have evenings and weekends to themselves to explore Baltimore and the surrounding areas on their own, with other program participants, or their laboratory peers.

Students are encouraged to explore this page to learn first-hand from students about their experience in the INBT NanoBio REU program.
