This award provides support to continue a Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site at the University of Michigan Biological Station in Pellston, MI. Ten undergraduates interested in research in field biology will be selected each summer to participate in the program. Students will both learn and live at the Station during the nine-week summer session. The research experience will be the sole focus of their academic activities during that period. The selected students will each work with a faculty mentor, attend special REU evening workshops, attend REU weekly discussion meetings, attend general seminars at the Station, and develop their own research project (from conception of the ideas through data collection to verbal and written presentation of the study). Students will be selected on the basis of academic excellence, letters of recommendation, and evidence of interest in research. After participation in the program, each student would help in the evaluation of his/her experiences in the program.

该奖项为密歇根州佩尔斯顿的密歇根大学生物站的本科生研究经验网站提供支持。每年夏天将选出10名对野外生物学研究感兴趣的本科生参加该计划。在为期九周的暑期课程中，学生们将在空间站学习和生活。研究经历将是他们在此期间学术活动的唯一焦点。被选中的学生将与一位教师导师一起工作，参加特别的REU夜间研讨会，参加REU每周讨论会议，参加研究站的一般研讨会，并发展他们自己的研究项目（从想法的概念到数据收集，再到口头和书面的研究报告）。学生将根据学业成绩、推荐信和对研究感兴趣的证据进行选择。在参与项目后，每个学生将帮助评估他/她在项目中的经历。
