This award continues support for the Summer Undergraduate Research Program in the Cognitive and Behavioral Sciences at the University of Minnesota. This ten-week program will emphasize student participationh in the research activities of faculty affiliated with the Center for Cognitive Sciences. Eleven undergraduates will be selected from across the country. They will (1) work as a full member of a faculty mentor's research team; (2) give an oral presentation to peers and participating faculty and write a formal report on the research project engaged during the program; (3) take part in workshops devoted to research ethics, technical writing, and preparation for graduate studies; and (4) participate in a thrice-weekly multidisciplinary research training seminar. Seminar activities include presentations by faculty, laboratory tours, and field trips. The integrated program includes opportunities for the participants to learn specific research methods, to apply these methods in the context of their own research, and to examine broad conceptual and methodological issues relevant to the cognitive sciences and related areas. Participation in special social and cultural team building events as well as common housing in a university dormitory is designed to foster a strong community of students. This award contributes to the Foundation's continuing efforts to attract talented students into careers in science through active undergraduate research experiences.

该奖项继续支持明尼苏达大学认知和行为科学的夏季本科生研究计划。这个为期十周的课程将强调学生参与认知科学中心附属教师的研究活动。将从全国各地选拔11名本科生。他们将（1）工作作为教师导师的研究团队的正式成员;（2）给同行和参与教师的口头报告，并写一份正式报告的研究项目期间从事的计划;（3）参加研讨会致力于研究伦理，技术写作，并准备研究生学习;和（4）参加每周三次的多学科研究培训研讨会。研讨会的活动包括教师的演讲、实验室图尔斯参观和实地考察。综合计划包括参与者学习特定研究方法的机会，在自己的研究背景下应用这些方法，并研究与认知科学及相关领域相关的广泛概念和方法论问题。参加特殊的社会和文化团队建设活动以及在大学宿舍的共同住房旨在培养学生的强大社区。该奖项有助于基金会通过积极的本科研究经验，继续努力吸引有才华的学生进入科学职业。
