This award provides renewed funding for a summer internship program at the Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO), Columbia University. The goal of the summer internship program is to teach undergraduates about the process of doing scientific research, to expose the students to a wide range of research topics, to facilitate interactions with a wide diversity of fellow science students and researchers, to expose the students to a range of career options, and to teach the use of database software. LDEO pairs each student with a LDEO senior researcher. Students develop research projects, conduct data analysis and present final results of the project. Use of large computer databases and the extensive computer systems available at LDEO is an important component of the research conducted by all the interns. In addition, LDEO organizes a lecture series, including panel discussions on ethics in science.

该奖项为哥伦比亚大学拉蒙多尔蒂地球观测站（LDEO）的暑期实习计划提供了新的资金。暑期实习计划的目标是教本科生关于做科学研究的过程，让学生接触到广泛的研究课题，促进与科学研究生和研究人员的广泛多样性的互动，让学生接触到一系列的职业选择，并教数据库软件的使用。LDEO将每个学生与LDEO高级研究员配对。学生开发研究项目，进行数据分析，并提出项目的最终结果。使用大型计算机数据库和LDEO现有的广泛计算机系统是所有实习生进行研究的重要组成部分。此外，LDEO还组织了一系列讲座，包括关于科学伦理的小组讨论。
