This award provides renewed funding for a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science (VIMS), College of William and Mary, which has been funded by NSF since 1989. The major objectives of the program are to: 1) provide meaningful research and training opportunities for undergraduates in coastal marine science and 2) increase the participation of underrepresented groups in the ocean sciences. The PI's request support for twelve undergraduate students each year during a 10-week summer research internship for a total of 5 years. The internship program focuses on interdisciplinary coastal marine science, particularly processes operating in the local estuarine and coastal environments. Research areas available for students include marine ecology, biological and chemical oceanography, biogeochemistry, geological and physical oceanography, marine fisheries, and marine policy. Students will receive a stipend, housing and transportation costs to and from VIMS. They participate in a variety of workshops and seminars. They are mentored by VIMS faculty while conducting their independent research project, and are expected to prepare a final paper and give a final oral presentation of their results. A 2010 survey of former students indicates that this program has been highly successful in the past, with 66% of under-represented alumni and 82% of well-represented alumni pursuing careers or higher degrees in science or engineering.

该奖项为弗吉尼亚海洋科学研究所（VIMS）威廉和玛丽学院的本科生研究经验（REU）计划提供了新的资金，该计划自1989年以来一直由NSF资助。该计划的主要目标是：1）为沿海海洋科学本科生提供有意义的研究和培训机会，2）增加海洋科学中代表性不足的群体的参与。PI的要求支持12名本科生每年在为期10周的夏季研究实习，共5年。实习计划侧重于跨学科的沿海海洋科学，特别是在当地河口和沿海环境中运行的过程。可供学生研究的领域包括海洋生态学，生物和化学海洋学，地球化学，地质和物理海洋学，海洋渔业和海洋政策。学生将获得津贴，住房和交通费用，并从VIMS。他们参加各种讲习班和研讨会。他们在进行独立研究项目时由VIMS教师指导，并预计将准备最后一篇论文，并对他们的结果进行最后的口头陈述。2010年对以前学生的调查表明，该计划在过去非常成功，66%的代表性不足的校友和82%的代表性良好的校友追求科学或工程的职业或更高学位。
