9820666BurnleyThe Atlanta Consortium for Research in the Earth Science (ACRES) will conduct a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program at Georgia State University. The purpose of the REU program is to extend opportunities to participate in geoscience research in the Atlanta area. REU program participants will work with ACRES faculty on selected research problems. The regional geology of Georgia is both interesting and diverse. Research projects will connect to the landscape in which the participants live. While participants are learning to conduct research they will also be learning about the nature of the process of scientific investigation through readings, discussions and personal reflections. The participant to faculty ratio will be approximately 1.4:1 ensuring extensive personal attention. ACRES faculty come from a diversity of academic institutions: Georgia State University; Clark Atlanta University and Fort Valley State University both historically black colleges; Georgia Perimeter College a two year undergraduate institution; and Columbus State University, a four year comprehensive institution.

9820666Burnleythe Atlanta Earth Science（ACRES）研究联盟将为佐治亚州立大学的本科生（REU）计划进行研究经验。 REU计划的目的是扩大参加亚特兰大地区地球科学研究的机会。 REU计划参与者将与ACRES教职员工解决选定的研究问题。 佐治亚州的区域地质既有趣又多样。 研究项目将连接到参与者居住的景观。 尽管参与者正在学习进行研究，但他们还将通过阅读，讨论和个人思考来学习科学研究过程的性质。 参与者与教师的比例大约为1.4：1，以确保广泛的个人关注。 英亩的教师来自多种学术机构：佐治亚州立大学；克拉克亚特兰大大学和堡谷州立大学历史上都是黑人学院；佐治亚州外围学院一家两年的本科机构；和哥伦布州立大学，四年的综合机构。
