Undergraduate Research at the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory

该奖项为落基山生物实验室本科生站点继续成功的研究经验提供资金。 三年内，每年将支持十名本科生参与以野外生物学研究为重点的研究。 人民实验室拥有悠久的实地研究和教育传统，64 年来一直为本科生提供研究机会。 每个学生将参加为期 10 周的 RMBL。 将为科学设计、项目选择和启动、项目完成提供指导。 将维持每个学生一名指导研究导师的比例。 我们将鼓励学生参与 RMBL 提供的许多研究机会，例如正式和非正式研讨会、与访问科学家的互动以及接触各个级别的现场生物学界。 随着夏季的进行以及学生在研究追求中从相对依赖转向相对独立，项目协调员和每位研究导师将仔细监控每个学生的智力进步。 人民生物学实验室对其在教育对野外生物学感兴趣的女性以及吸引资深女性科学家方面取得的成功感到特别自豪。 该奖项包括增加少数族裔学生参与的计划。

This award provides funds to continue a successful Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site at The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory. Ten undergraduate students per year for three years, will be supported to participate in research focusing on field biology studies. The RMBL has a strong tradition of field research and education, and has been providing undergraduate research opportunities for 64 years. Each student will attend the RMBL for 10 weeks. Guidance will be provided in scientific design, project selection and initiation, and project completion. A ratio of one supervising research mentor for each student will be maintained. Students will be encouraged to participate in the many research opportunities available at the RMBL, such as formal and informal seminars, interactions with visiting scientists, and exposure to all levels of a field biology community. The intellectual progress of each student will be monitored carefully by the Program Coordinator and by each research mentor, as the summer proceeds and students move from relative dependence to relative independence in their research pursuits. The RMBL is particularly proud of its success in educating women interested in field biology, and in attracting senior female scientists. Plans for increasing minority student participation are included in this award.
