This award provides funds for an REU Site in Geography sponsored by Oklahoma State University. Eight undergraduate students will be recruited nationally to perform research under the guidance of eight faculty mentors. The projects will deal with using geographical information systems (GIS) in research in hydrology and water resources. The projects will be parts or collaborations with on-going research of the faculty mentors. The students ill be given ArcView Certification, GPS training, metadata instruction, and participate in mentor/peer seminars. Finally each undergraduate researcher will have an opportunity to present the findings of his/her research at a professional meeting. Field trips will provide the students training in ground truthing and a chance to practice field data collection relevant to their research project. This award contributes to the Foundation's continuing efforts to attract talented students into careers in science through active undergraduate research experiences.

该奖项为俄克拉荷马州立大学赞助的 REU 地理站点提供资金。 将在全国范围内招收8名本科生，在8名导师的指导下进行研究。 这些项目将涉及在水文和水资源研究中使用地理信息系统（GIS）。 这些项目将是教师导师正在进行的研究的一部分或合作。 学生将获得 ArcView 认证、GPS 培训、元数据指导，并参加导师/同行研讨会。 最后，每位本科生研究人员将有机会在专业会议上展示他/她的研究成果。 实地考察将为学生提供地面实况培训，并有机会练习与其研究项目相关的现场数据收集。 该奖项有助于基金会不断努力通过积极的本科生研究经验吸引有才华的学生进入科学领域。
