STARS & Engage Summer 2025 Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Application

The STARS & Engage Summer REU allows students to participate in high-level, faculty-mentored research projects over an eight-week summer program. Students who participate in the STARS & Engage REU have the opportunity to present their culminating research projects at our annual Cal Poly Pomona Creative Activities & Research Symposium (CPP CARS). 
 
Students who participate in the STARS & Engage program can expect the following:
  • Work on a faculty-mentored research project for about 40 hours per week.
  • Participate in a symposium by articulating what they have learned on a research poster or oral presentation at CARS.
  • Have the opportunity to create a community of scholars by networking and engaging with students from other research labs and learn about lab safety training.
