Overall, 74.7% of alumni pursued/are pursuing an advanced degree.The remaining REU alumni are either working in industry (22.6%) or K-12 teachers (2.7%). Inthis work we will provide a more comprehensive analysis of the results from the longitudinalassessment of the program.Introduction Undergraduate research has been identified as an educational practice that directlyaddresses challenges facing science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM)education1, 7, 8. Specifically, engaging undergraduates in research is expected to increase interestin careers in STEM, improve retention of undergraduates in STEM fields and increase thenumber of people
