REU Site Proposal: Aquatic Chemical Ecology (ACE) at GA Tech

摘要：该奖项为佐治亚州亚特兰大的佐治亚理工学院的本科生研究体验(REU)现场项目提供资金。该项目将在每年夏天为期10周的暑期研究项目中为9名学生提供支持。研究的重点将是水生化学生态学。预算包括支持学生津贴、住房、旅行和一些研究费用。该计划将包括学生的独立研究项目，参加系列讲座，以及实地考察。它将以学生的口头陈述和书面报告结束。学生将被鼓励在同行评议的期刊上发表文章，并参加暑期研究计划后的全国会议。PI将尝试从当地学院和大学招收学生，特别是将招生努力集中在HBCU和亚特兰大地区的少数族裔学生。该网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作提供支持。

Abstract:This award provides funding for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site program in acquatic science at Georgia Institute of Technology, located in Atlanta, GA. The program will support nine students during a ten-week summer research program each summer. The research focus will be on aquatic chemical ecology. The budget includes support for student stipends, housing, travel and some research expenses. The program will include independent research projects by the students, participation in a lecture series, and field trips. It will conclude with student oral presentations and written reports. Students will be encouraged to publish in peer-reviewed journals and participate in national conferences following the summer research program. The PI will attempt to recruit students from local colleges and universities, particularly focusing recruitment efforts on HBCU's and minority students in the Atlanta area. The site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.
