Boulder Solar Alliance REU Program

Boulder Solar REU Program

The University of Colorado Boulder invites undergraduates to apply for a paid summer research experience for highly motivated students interested in solar and space physics. Students will come to Boulder, Colorado for 10 weeks to work on a research project with a mentor. The topic areas span the field of solar and space physics, from instrument hardware to data analysis to modeling of the Sun, the Sun-Earth system, the near-Earth environment, or the heliosphere.

Successful applicants will work with scientist mentors at one of these Boulder institutes:

The program begins with a week-long summer school in solar and space physics and continues with seminars and discussions while you work at one of the participating laboratories, providing peer collaboration opportunities. At the end of the summer, you will present your research findings. Please read through our FAQs for further details.

Applications for the 2024 BSA REU program are now closed.

First round of decision emails have been sent. If you have not received an email, it means you are on our waitlist. We will let you know when we make a final decision on your application either way. We know this must be an uncertain time for you and we thank you for your patience.
