Want to have a fantastic summer? What could be more exciting than conducting research in mathematics for eight weeks…and getting paid to do it?! If this sounds like fun read on--it just keeps getting better!
Program Description
The principal goal of the REU in mathematics at CSUSB is to provide
promising
undergraduate math majors with a meaningful, exciting and challenging
experience in mathematical research. During the eight-week residential
