This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program provides funding of $464,339 to Lehigh University to operate an undergraduate Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site in physics. The 3-year award, effective May 1, 2025 through April 30, 2028, will enable Lehigh to host 10 undergraduate students each summer for 10 weeks of research across diverse physics fields, including string theory, nuclear physics, astrophysics, condensed matter, optics, and biophysics. The program aims to empower promising students to pursue careers in science and technology by providing research experience, faculty mentorship, professional development, and social activities that foster interactions between undergraduate, graduate, and faculty participants. The REU site at Lehigh has a track record of success, with over two-thirds of past participants going on to graduate studies in science and engineering.
