Stevens 9623451 The Summer Grants Program of the Council on Undergraduate Research offers fellowships to student/faculty teams to conduct 10-week research projects at their home institutions. This program helps to remedy a problem faced by students and faculty in which the institution cannot sustain an REU-Site and the student cannot reasonably travel to an REU-Site to participate in a research program. Increases in resources available to CUR have slowed, creating particularly acute funding limitations in the Geosciences. Among proposals in 1995, only 20% were funded, while at least three others would have been had the resources been available. This award will provide base funding for CUR-GEO, including sufficient funds to support three fellowships each year for three years. In addition, NSF will match non-federal dollars raised by CUR up to the cost of three additional fellowships. The matching funds are intended to encourage additional contributions to CUR-GEO. The fellowship recipients will be selected by CUR through its established mechanisms. Results will be presented in CUR-sponsored poster sessions at regional meetings of the Geological Society of America.

Stevens 9623451 本科生研究委员会的夏季资助计划为学生/教师团队提供奖学金，让他们在其所在机构开展为期 10 周的研究项目。 该计划有助于解决学生和教师面临的问题，即该机构无法维持 REU 站点，并且学生无法合理前往 REU 站点参加研究项目。 CUR 可用资源的增长已经放缓，导致地球科学领域的资金限制尤为严重。 在 1995 年的提案中，只有 20% 获得资助，而如果有可用的资源，至少还有另外 3 项提案会获得资助。 该奖项将为 CUR-GEO 提供基础资金，包括三年内每年支持三项奖学金的足够资金。 此外，NSF 将匹配 CUR 筹集的非联邦资金，最多可支付三项额外奖学金的费用。 配套资金旨在鼓励向 CUR-GEO 提供额外捐款。 研究金获得者将由 CUR 通过其既定机制选出。 结果将在 CUR 主办的美国地质学会区域会议上的海报会议上展示。
