REU Journal

The journal is an in-house publication created to emulate the publication process. Participants are required to write a technical paper about the work they have accomplished over the course of the summer. This effort can be cited as a non-refereed publication when students are applying to graduate school. The Co-PI serves as the managing editor.

Many participants reported not knowing if their work resulted in publication. Below is a list of papers that an REU participant has contributed to, marked in bold. Check back often as this list will grow. If you would like to add to the list, contact the REU program assistant at reuga@pdx.edu.
