2022 Symposium for Undergraduate Research in Data Science, Systems, and Security (REU Symposium 2022)
Collocated at the 8th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Big Data Computing, Applications and Technologies (BDCAT 2022)
One day in December 6-9, 2022, Portland, Oregon, USA
DescriptionUndergraduate research plays an important role in attracting our best undergraduates to continue towards graduate education in the science and engineering fields. Publishing research in a professional venue is part of the training for future researchers. The National Science Foundation (NSF) provides support for undergraduate research within the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The goal of this Symposium is to provide a venue for students to publish their research done as part of the REU program. The symposium seeks original submissions in research areas that are currently funded by the NSF’s directorate for Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) or other related directorates. Research done by undergraduate researchers via funding from similar programs such as Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) are also eligible to submit.
The same REU Symposium has been held in 2021. More information can be found at REU Symposium 2021.
The key requirement for this Symposium is that the submission’s lead author must be an undergraduate student funded as part of the NSF REU (REU supplement or REU Site) program or similar programs.
