Biogeochemistry Scholarship Program: An NSF Sponsored REU Site for Interdisciplinary Research in Biogeochemistry

PI 请求资金在奥多明尼恩大学启动暑期实习计划，该计划将重点关注生物地球化学，并将专门鼓励少数族裔的参与。生物地球化学合作项目将包括（1）天然水的微量元素化学和（2）海洋系统中的生物地球化学过程。该计划将支持从四年制大学（包括几所 HBCU）招募的 10 名学生。该计划将包括每周一次关于科学和伦理主题的研讨会。该提案得到了 NSF 道德与价值观 (EVS) 计划的支持。该提案还包含大学分摊大量费用。

The PI requests funding to initiate a summer internship program at Old Dominion University that will focus on biogeochemistry and will be specifically geared to encourage participation from minorities. Collaborative biogeochemistry projects will include (1) trace element chemistry of natural water and (2) biogeochemical processes in marine systems. The program will support 10 students who will be recruited from four-year colleges, including several HBCUs. The program will include weekly seminars on scientific and ethical topics. This proposal is supported by the NSF Ethics and Values (EVS) program. The proposal also contains significant cost sharing from the University.
