Research Groups Picture

The faculty will match the REU students accepted into the program according to their skills and interests and invite them to participate in one of four primary and ongoing research areas for which there are currently active research teams at UNL. Students may also choose to supplement their work with one of the other faculty members whose research does not fit one of these areas but is within the psychology and law program. Choose a link below for a summary of each area and the work of all faculty team leaders and some of the supplemental areas available for REU research.
