Fully Funded, Marine Science Research Internships for Undergraduates

The Bermuda Institute of Ocean Sciences (BIOS) has received funding from the National Science Foundation (Award number OCE-2050858), for the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program to support nine internships for undergraduate student research at BIOS in Fall 2023 (starts August 28 - ends November 17).
An REU internship at BIOS is a great way to gain the experience necessary to embark on graduate studies or careers in the marine and ocean sciences. 
Funding includes roundtrip air fare (from and to the U.S.) campus accommodation and all meals. Each successful REU applicant will also receive a competitive stipend.

This life-changing 12-week program provides participants with the opportunity to conduct intensive, hands-on individual research projects in a collaborative team environment under the expert mentorship of BIOS faculty and staff.

This year's REU research projects will be based around the following broad research themes:

  • Coral Reef Function and Resilience
  • Planktonic Life: Size, abundance and community structure
  • Marine Microbial Oceanography

An overview of the 2023 REU projects can be found here.
Further information on the REU program at BIOS can be found here, including eligibility and online application information, student testimonials and more detail on potential projects that students may apply to work on. BIOS maintains a Facebook page where you can find out more about the programs we offer, read about current and past interns who have conducted research, and receive updates on ongoing projects at BIOS!

Applicants must meet the following criteria:
  • Over 18 and enrolled in a program of undergraduate study immediately before and after the program dates
  • U.S. citizen, national or permanent resident

The 2023 REU Program application deadline is May 31. We encourage all successful applicants to arrange for independent study credit through their home institutions.

Underrepresented groups and students attending colleges or universities with limited STEM research opportunities are particularly encouraged to apply.
