SAGE (Summer of Applied Geophysical Experience) is a 4-5 week education and research program in field-based applied geophysics. The program has existed for 25 years and involves about 25-30 graduate and undergraduate students per year. The program includes instruction in applied geophysics, and seismic, gravity, magnetic, and electromagnetic field data collection. Students at SAGE participate in every phase of a geophysical research program including data collection, data analysis, processing, modeling and interpretation; and they present their results in both oral and written form. This 2-year project supports the 5 additional students per year in the summer field program (4 weeks) and in a one-week follow-up workshop designed to extend and enhance the students' research experiences on geothermal research through additional analyses of the data collected during the summer. REU students at SAGE come from a variety of institutions ranging from small liberal arts colleges to large research universities. Student career goals are solidified from information and experiences included in SAGE through the significant participation of industry, government, national laboratory and academic professionals. The follow-up workshop is also used to provide additional professional development of the REU students through assisting them in preparation of an oral or poster presentation of research results to be given at a future professional meeting. Support for about ten of the REU students to attend a professional meeting is included in the project. This project is supported in collaboration with the Department of Energy, Office of Geothermal Technologies Program.

SAGE（应用地球物理体验之夏）是一个为期4-5周的基于现场的应用地球物理学教育和研究项目。该计划已经存在了25年，每年约有25-30名研究生和本科生参加。该计划包括应用地球物理学，地震，重力，磁场和电磁场数据收集的指令。SAGE的学生参与地球物理研究计划的每个阶段，包括数据收集，数据分析，处理，建模和解释;他们以口头和书面形式展示他们的结果。这个为期2年的项目每年支持5名额外的学生参加夏季实地项目（4周）和为期一周的后续研讨会，旨在通过对夏季收集的数据进行额外分析，扩展和增强学生在地热研究方面的研究经验。SAGE的REU学生来自各种机构，从小型文理学院到大型研究型大学。通过行业、政府、国家实验室和学术专业人士的大力参与，学生的职业目标从SAGE中包含的信息和经验中得到巩固。后续研讨会还用于通过帮助他们准备在未来的专业会议上进行口头或海报展示的研究结果，为REU学生提供额外的专业发展。该项目包括支持大约10名REU学生参加专业会议。该项目得到了能源部地球物理技术计划办公室的合作支持。
