Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU)

NSF funds a large number of research opportunities for undergraduate students through its REU Sites program. An REU Site consists of a group of ten or so undergraduates who work in the research programs of the host institution. Each student is associated with a specific research project, where he/she works closely with the faculty and other researchers. Students are granted stipends and, in many cases, assistance with housing and travel. Undergraduate students supported with NSF funds must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States or its possessions. An REU Site may be at either a US or foreign location.

The Consortium’s Co-Led Online Seminars are taught by two endangered scholars – one who is hosted by a Consortium member institution, and the other a colleague of their choice. The seminars connect exiled and stranded scholars to the academic community they have lost, give voice to their expertise which has been silenced by circumstances, reconnect students and professors, and offer free, online learning opportunities to learners around the world who might not otherwise have access. These seminars introduce our scholars to a very wide global audience and cover many subjects that are often of current geopolitical relevance. Since 2019, Consortium seminars have attracted over 15,000 registrants from 156 countries.
