Hey everyone! Good to be back, I think I may have missed the first blog, I apologize. My family, like many others, has been impacted by COVID. I have been dealing with some more bad news and prepping for a funeral next week. Sorry for bringing the mood down but I just want some level of understanding, we all have lives and things going on so be gentle with yourself and be safe.
For this post I really want to emphasize the importance of summer REUs (Research Experience for Undergraduates). REUs can give you that critical experience that you need for the real world and it exposes you to new skills that you can use in your career. They are great opportunities to network and build your CV and or resume. If you are attending grad school you should participate in an REU, they give you an edge and basically make you a well rounded candidate. Most REUs are due by the end of this month, some are already closed! Don't wait and don't miss out on an amazing opportunity. P.S. many REUs are still virtual and almost all offer a stipend (get paid over summer to master your craft)!!!
