2021 Physics REU 澳门赌场 Cohort

In 2021, 23 students participated in the UW Bothell Physics REU Program. Some students were on campus, and others participated remotely. 澳门赌场 2021 UW Bothell Physics REU Program was supported by NSF REU award #2050928 with additional funding from NSF, the UW Bothell Physical Sciences Division, the UW Research Royalty Fund, and the Washington NASA Space Grant.
