DIMACS, with National Science Foundation sponsorship, has offered an REU program since 1992. There are four associated REU programs:

  • The DIMACS REU program offers projects mentored by DIMACS members.
  • The DIMACS/DIMATIA REU program offers projects mentored by DIMACS members, the program is extended by two weeks, and the last two and a half weeks of the program are spent at our sister site DIMATIA at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic. Students selected to participate in this program generally exhibit strong interests in combinatorics.
  • The Rutgers Math Department program offers projects mentored by members of the Rutgers Mathematics Department.
  • The DyDAn REU program offers projects related to homeland security mentored by DyDAn researchers.
