Drs. Charles Liu (City University of New York (CUNY) - Staten Island) and James Webster (American Museum of Natural History) will continue a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site at the American Museum of Natural History. The Site will provide opportunities for undergraduates to conduct experimental, observational, theoretical, and computational research activity in earth science, planetary science, and astrophysics. Aside from their primary research activities, students will also participate in Museum programs; attend field trips and scientific colloquia and, as appropriate, conferences to present research; and report on their work at the end of their summer experience, in both a written scientific paper and a 15-minute oral presentation in a multidisciplinary scientific symposium open to the general public.The principal investigators will focus particular effort on the inclusion of CUNY students as participants in this REU site in an effort to attract students from populations which are currently underserved and underrepresented in the sciences.

Charles Liu博士（纽约-史坦顿岛分校）和James韦伯斯特博士（美国自然历史博物馆）将继续在美国自然历史博物馆进行本科生研究体验（REU）。该网站将为本科生提供机会进行实验，观测，理论和计算研究活动在地球科学，行星科学和天体物理学。 除了他们的主要研究活动，学生还将参加博物馆计划;参加实地考察和科学座谈会，并在适当的情况下，会议提出研究;并在暑期实习结束时汇报工作，在一份书面科学论文和一份15-在向公众开放的多学科科学研讨会上的一分钟口头报告。主要研究人员将集中特别的努力关于将纽约市立大学的学生作为这个REU网站的参与者，以吸引目前在科学领域服务不足和代表性不足的学生。
