This Research Experience for Undergraduates opportunity takes place at the Cornell Nanoscale Facility (CNF) at Cornell or MIT.Nano at MIT, although it is coordinated from Cornell. All positions are accessed via this application. SUPREME is a JUMP 2.0 research program sponsored by SRC/DARPA for advanced nanoelectronic devices and materials (https://supreme.cornell.edu/) . The SUPREME REU program, funded by NSF, gives talented undergraduates an opportunity to join these research activities at Cornell or MIT, working in faculty research groups on advanced electronic device structures, processes, or materials. These will be experimental laboratory positions which may involved working in a Cleanroom. We expect to support 10 students in the SUPREME REU program, 5 each at MIT and Cornell. The applicant pool will also be used for several related REU and internship programs at Cornell with separate funding. These opportunities will also be in the area of materials science, solid state physics, semiconductor materials, quantum materials, and microfabrication process support. Please see opportunity web site https://www.cnf.cornell.edu/education/reu for further description of program scope and activities. Participants will receive a $7,000 stipend over 10 weeks, plus housing, and reasonable travel expenses. The program will run from Tuesday June 2, 2026 thru Friday, August 7, 2026. Unfortunately, this period is fixed. Please do not apply if you can not participate for the entire program.
