Last day

Today marks the final day of my REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) program, and it’s a bittersweet moment. Over the course of this program, I’ve learned a tremendous amount, from advanced research techniques to effective collaboration strategies. The experience has been incredibly enriching, both academically and personally.

I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside and learn from brilliant minds, both peers and mentors, who have inspired and challenged me every step of the way. The connections I’ve made and the friendships I’ve formed have been a significant highlight, making the journey even more memorable.

As I reflect on this experience, I’m filled with gratitude for the knowledge gained, the skills honed, and the wonderful people I’ve met. This REU program has truly been a pivotal chapter in my academic journey, and I’m excited to carry forward all that I’ve learned into my future endeavors.
