Professor Scott Heinekamp's web page of REUs and other Summer Research Opportunities, 2007
In no particular order except for rough proximity to Aurora. Deadlines are given
if possible - some flexibility may be built in. Most are 9-10 week programs, some shorter.
PLEASE see Prof Heinekamp for paper announcements (posted outside Zab 203)
and applications, which will appear over the coming months, and go to the web sites!! In some cases, I have left the earlier incarnations of REU posted, and they may still be sponsoring programs in Summer 2007
