This award provides funding for a new Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at Texas A&M University at Galveston (TAMUG). The program will support ten students during a ten week summer research program over a three year period (2009-2011). The program will include independent research projects by the students, participation in a weekly summer lecture series on scientific and career-related topics. It will conclude with a written report and student poster and oral presentations. Students will also participate in a variety of field trips and laboratory tours. Funding supports student stipends, room and board, travel, and some field trip expenses. Students will be encouraged to publish in peer-reviewed journals and participate in national conferences following the summer research program. TAMUG will conduct a national recruiting effort and will focus local recruiting efforts on four Hispanic Serving Institutions, including UT Brownsville, UT Pan America, TAMU Kingsville, and TAMU Corpus-Christi, in support of OCE's efforts to increase the diversity of students and faculty in ocean sciences. As required by NSF REU program, most of the students will be selected from schools other than TAMUG.

该奖项为德克萨斯农工大学加尔维斯顿分校(TAMUG)的本科生新研究体验(REU)项目提供资金。该计划将在为期三年(2009-2011)的为期十周的暑期研究计划中支持10名学生。该计划将包括学生的独立研究项目，参加每周一次的关于科学和职业相关主题的暑期系列讲座。它将以书面报告、学生海报和口头陈述结束。学生还将参加各种实地考察和实验室参观。资金用于支付学生津贴、食宿、旅行和一些实地考察费用。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。TAMUG将在全国范围内进行招聘工作，并将把本地招聘工作的重点放在四所拉美裔服务机构，包括德克萨斯大学布朗斯维尔分校、UT泛美分校、TAMU金斯维尔分校和TAMU语料库-克里斯蒂分校，以支持OCE增加海洋科学学生和教师多样性的努力。根据NSF REU计划的要求，大多数学生将从TAMUG以外的学校中挑选出来。
