The National Astronomy and Ionosphere Center (NAIC) will continue their summer student research program at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. For ten weeks in the summer, students work as professional research collaborators with the members of the Observatory scientific and technical staff on the on-going research programs of the staff members. Through their participation in the active research environment of a professional scientist, rather than through student exercises, the students experience the full breadth of scientific research from defining the question to be answered or explored, through the data-taking and data interpretation steps, to the preparation of a published paper or public presentation of the work. The selection of the students to participate in the NAIC REU program will be done such that approximately half the students are chosen from among the applicants from mainland U.S. universities and the other half is selected from among the applicants from colleges and universities in Puerto Rico. This enables all of the students to work in a culturally rich and diverse professional environment, delivering a hands-on research experience that will stimulate the students to pursue a career in science.This REU Site is funded jointly by the NSF Division of Astronomical Sciences and the Division of Atmospheric Sciences.

国家天文学和电离层中心（NAIC）将继续在波多黎各的阿雷西博天文台进行暑期学生研究计划。 在夏季的十个星期里，学生与天文台的科学和技术人员一起进行专业研究合作，进行工作人员正在进行的研究计划。 通过参与专业科学家的积极研究环境，而不是通过学生练习，学生体验科学研究的全方位，从定义要回答或探索的问题，通过数据采集和数据解释步骤，到准备发表论文或公开介绍工作。 参加NAIC REU计划的学生的选择将这样做，大约一半的学生是从美国大陆的申请人中选择的。大学和另一半是从波多黎各的学院和大学的申请人中选择的。这使所有的学生都能在一个文化丰富和多样化的专业环境中工作，提供实践研究经验，这将刺激学生追求科学事业。这个REU网站由NSF天文科学部和大气科学部共同资助。
