REU: Research Experience for Undergraduates at the Center for Great Lakes Studies

摘要：0648797该奖项为威斯康星大学密尔沃基五大湖研究中心(CGLS)的本科生研究体验(REU)项目提供了新的资金。该计划将支持9名REU学生在为期10周的研究实习期间每年夏天的津贴和相关费用。REU网站为国家招收的多学科环境中的学生提供环境水生科学研究培训。对湖泊和海洋环境的化学、地质学和生物学感兴趣的学生将与指导活跃的研究实验室的导师配对。学生们在R/V Nesskay号上花费时间采样密歇根湖，并使用遥控工具探索附近的珊瑚礁。该计划包括关于研究生院、职业机会、科学写作、成果的公开展示和相关主题的研讨会。每个学生将在节目结束时向公众展示一张海报和描述他们的工作的口头演讲。他们还将以典型期刊文章的格式撰写一篇详细的论文。暑期课程结束后，将鼓励学生发表论文。

Abstract: 0648797This award provides renewed funding for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee's Center for Great Lakes Studies (CGLS). The program will support stipends and related expenses for nine REU students per summer during a 10 week research internship. The REU Site provides environmental aquatic science research training for nationally-recruited students in a multidisciplinary environment. Students interested in chemistry, geology, and biology of lake and ocean settings are paired with mentors supervising active research laboratories. Students spend time aboard the R/V Nesskay sampling Lake Michigan and using a remotely operated vehicle for exploration of a nearby reef. The program includes workshops on graduate school, career opportunities, scientific writing, public presentation of results and related topics. Each student will present a poster and oral talk describing their work to a public audience at the end of the program. They also will write a detailed paper in the format of a typical journal article. Students will be encouraged to publish their papers following the summer session.
