A great site for looking up summer research opportunities is:  www.PathwaysToScience.org/SummerResearch.asp

A useful tool for looking up additional opportunities is: http://fundingopps.cos.com/.   You will need to specify “Undergraduate Research” and then add parameters for the search.   You can do the user training that is also found at that site to help you learn to search more specifically for the opportunity that you would like.  This site has thousands of listings, so it helps to learn how to search for specific opportunities.

Opportunities offered by the National Science Foundation only, can be found at http://www.nsf.gov/crssprgm/reu/
