This National Science Foundation (NSF) Integrative Activities (CFDA 47.083) Project Grant award to Mississippi State University (MSU) provides $178,384 in funding over a three-year period from April 1, 2024 to March 31, 2027 to support an Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site focused on computational methods and data analysis in materials science.

The REU program will provide 10-week summer research opportunities for undergraduate students, primarily recruited from Historically Black Colleges and Universities and Predominantly Undergraduate Institutions. Students will conduct multidisciplinary research projects with faculty mentors in areas such as materials simulation and design, and computational data analysis of materials. Participants will gain hands-on experience with advanced computational techniques, attend training seminars, and present their research findings. The program aims to prepare students for graduate study in science, engineering, and mathematics fields. No subawards are planned under this grant.
