Engaging a New Generation of Arctic Researchers

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The purpose of this project is t attract young scientists to Earth Sciences research in the high latitudes through attendance at a series of summer schools and participation in field projects, thus promoting further collaborations and networking. The goal will be accomplished through a suite of four summer schools for groups of about 15-20 graduate students, as well as development of online course materials. Each course will consist of a classroom component and, more importantly, field experiences, hands-on activities/mini-projects, and presentations designed for communication to a broader general audience. Systematic pre- and post- surveys will provide metrics of summer school success.
