Undergraduate Research & Internships
Engaging in mathematical research as an undergraduate is an excellent way to prepare for graduate school or a career in industry. Tulane provides several avenues for getting involved, both on-campus and nationwide.
Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REUs)
Funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF), REU programs allow students to spend their summer researching a specific mathematical topic at a host university. They are highly competitive and offer stipends.
Internal Research & Honors Theses
Tulane mathematics majors can participate in independent study or complete a Senior Honors Thesis under the guidance of our faculty. If you are interested in a specific area of math (e.g., probability, algebra, fluid mechanics), browse our faculty directory and reach out directly to inquire about reading courses or research openings.
