This REU, in combination with its location, has been one of my best experiences. Everyone in the lab I worked in was friendly and helpful and the experience solidified my decision to go to graduate school.

The UNM program gave me exposure to research in Chemistry, a skill that I was lacking up until that point. This has helped me immensely in my current research in optoelectronics.
-Jaleena Keeling (REU 2007)

The UNM REU program gave me the opportunity to experience high level research and further convinced me that I wanted to ultimately pursue a PhD. Made some great friendships and relationships and experienced a new part of the country I never would have been exposed to.
- David Lavenson (REU 2007)

The REU exposed me to my first individual project where I learned valuable basic skills in handling equipment and doing research.
- Robert Bradley (REU 2007)

I will be attending UNM for grad school next year to continue the research I started as an REU student.
