See There are many research opportunities for undergraduates through federal funding. Here are a few to consider: National Aeronautics and space Administration (NASA) Undergraduate Student Research Program (USRP) National Science Foundation Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REUs) NSF funds a large number of research opportunities for undergraduate students through its REU Sites program. An REU Site consists of a group of ten or so undergraduates who work in the research programs of the host institution. Each student is associated with a specific research project, where he/she works closely with the faculty and other researchers. Students are granted stipends and, in many cases, assistance with housing and travel. Undergraduate students supported with NSF funds must be citizens or permanent residents of the United States or its possessions. An REU Site may be at either a US or foreign location. Example of one area within the REUs: Under the Social Sciences/Economics/Behavioral Sciences, there are over 40 summer internships offered.

6 National Institutes of Health (NIH) Undergraduate Scholarships (in biomedical, behavioral, and social sciences) for students from disadvantaged backgrounds who are committed to health-related research careers. Offers up to $20,000 in tuition and living expenses, plus paid, ten-week research training at NIH in the summer and paid employment at the NIH after graduation.
