Summer Opportunities for Students in Computer Science and Mathematics

• Summer Internship Opportunities in Computer Science & Mathematics
  (Extensive list of summer programs for students sponsored by NSF, government labs, academia and industry.)
  
  
• DREU (Distributed Research Experiences for Undergraduates): The objective of the Distributed Research Experiences for Undergraduates (DREU) is to increase the number of women and students from underrepresented groups entering graduate studies in the fields of computer science and engineering. This highly selective program matches promising undergraduate women and undergraduate men from groups underrepresented in computing with a faculty mentor for a summer research experience at the faculty member's home institution. Students are directly involved in a research project and interact with graduate students and professors on a daily basis. This experience is invaluable for students who are considering graduate school, providing them with a close-up view of what graduate school is really like and also increasing their competitiveness as an applicant for graduate admissions and fellowships.
