The Santa Fe Institute will continue its REU program. The site will select a limited number of highly motivated and talented undergraduates who can benefit from exposure to the rich interdisciplinary mix of ideas at the Institute. Women and minorities will especially be invited to apply. Senior faculty mentors will be selected for their interest in the program and each undergraduate will be matched with one or more mentors who have research problems of real interest to the student and to which the student can make a significant contribution. Other resident scientists will be encouraged to take a regular interest in the intellectual development of the interns. The students will be encouraged to participate fully in the intellectual life of the Institute by attending colloquia and seminars and through informal discussion of their work with other resident researchers. Where appropriate, publication of scientific papers, attendance at workshops, and release of student-developed software will be encouraged by SFI. During each student's residency he will make a SFI colloquium presentation, compile a written summary of his work, and frequently consult with the program director. Students are encouraged to remain in contact with the Institute and their mentors as their careers develop, and, if appropriate, to return for subsequent scholarly visits.

圣达菲研究所将继续其REU计划。该网站将挑选数量有限的高积极性和有才华的本科生，他们可以从研究所丰富的跨学科混合思想中受益。女性和少数族裔将特别被邀请申请。资深教师导师将根据他们对该项目的兴趣进行挑选，每个本科生将与一名或多名导师配对，这些导师具有学生真正感兴趣的研究问题，并且学生可以对此做出重大贡献。其他常驻科学家将被鼓励定期关注实习生的智力发展。将通过参加学术讨论会和研讨会以及通过与其他常驻研究人员就其工作进行非正式讨论，鼓励学生充分参与研究所的知识生活。在适当的情况下，SFI将鼓励发表科学论文、参加研讨会和发布学生开发的软件。在每个学生的实习期间，他将做一次SFI学术报告，编写一份他工作的书面总结，并经常咨询项目主任。鼓励学生在职业发展过程中与学院及其导师保持联系，并在适当的情况下回国进行后续的学术访问。
