The Rocky Mountain Biological Lab (RMBL) hosts 10 students each summer to participate in the Research Experience for Undergraduate Site Program. The program is open to all undergraduate students, and stipends, room, board and travel are provided. Students conduct field research in ecology and evolutionary biology under the supervision of a senior scientist. The focus of the program is to help students, particularly students from underrepresented groups, consider and pursue a career in field biology. The primary emphasis of the program is an independent research project that students design and conduct under the guidance of a scientist at the RMBL. To assist both mentors and students, the RMBL conducts workshops in experimental design and statistical analysis. Upon completion of projects, all students in the REU program communicate their results orally at a summer-end symposium. Students are also required to submit a paper written in a scientific format to the program. Students are strongly encouraged to submit their papers to RMBL's online, peer-reviewed journal Undergraduate Research in Behavior, Ecology, and Evolution. Students interested in the RMBL's REU program should contact RMBL's Operation Manager ([e-mail], [phone]), or visit http://www.rmbl.org. PI is Dr Ian Billick, ([e-mail]).

落基山生物实验室（RMBL）每年夏天接待10名学生参加本科生现场计划的研究经验。该计划是开放给所有本科生，并提供津贴，食宿和旅行。学生在资深科学家的监督下进行生态学和进化生物学的实地研究。该计划的重点是帮助学生，特别是来自代表性不足的群体的学生，考虑和追求野外生物学的职业生涯。该计划的主要重点是学生在RMBL科学家的指导下设计和进行的独立研究项目。为了协助导师和学生，RMBL举办实验设计和统计分析工作坊。在项目完成后，所有学生在REU程序口头交流他们的结果在夏季结束的研讨会。学生还需要提交一份以科学格式撰写的论文。强烈鼓励学生将论文提交给RMBL的在线同行评审期刊《行为、生态学和进化的本科生研究》。对RMBL的REU项目感兴趣的学生请联系RMBL的运营经理（[e-mail]，[phone]），或访问http://www.rmbl.org。PI是Ian Billick博士（[e-mail]）。
