REU Site: The City University of New York / Goddard Institute for Space Studies Center for Global Climate Research Phase II

纽约城市大学/戈达德空间研究所全球气候研究中心是基于与地球科学、大气科学、日地相互作用和全球气候影响有关的研究。CUNY/GISS CGCR第二阶段将继续提供第二个三年期这种独特的本科生研究经验。每年夏天，10名学生将在本科生研究经验（REU）网站招募，并将在纽约市立大学教师和NASA科学家的指导下分配给研究团队（5名在纽约市立大学，5名在GISS）。学生将获得为期10周的研究经验津贴。除了从四年制学院招收学生外，拟议的活动将继续包括在社区学院一级积极招收学生。纽约市立大学以外的学生，在更大的纽约地区，也鼓励申请。纽约市立大学/GISS REU网站将继续寻求每年60%的代表性不足的少数民族和40%的女性参与。目标是：a）在纽约市立大学和GISS为更大的纽约地区选区提供全球气候变化和相关领域的本科生暑期研究机会; B）在GISS和纽约市立大学提供丰富活动，包括基本技术技能讲习班和研讨会; c）帮助学生在学年期间继续他们的研究，利用现有的NASA，NSF和NOAA计划;以及d）增加STEM途径的研究生院和科学劳动力的学生人数。智力优势：学生将参与现有的研究项目，这些项目是与NASA和/或NOAA资助的NASA科学家和CUNY教师合作的。学生将从事原创性研究，并为全球气候变化的一般知识体系做出贡献。合作发生在一个小的城市地理区域内，这使得教师和学生能够每天与科学家互动。更广泛的影响：这一独特的城市大学-GISS合作得到了扩展，以便更多的纽约城市大学和大纽约市地区的本科生可以体验到纽约城市大学/GISS丰富的科学研究和多元化的大熔炉环境。学生参与前沿研究，进入NASA研究中心，并有机会在全国会议上展示他们的成果，并作为同行评审出版物的共同作者。纽约市立大学的教师和GISS科学家合作有一个与学生在干领域的代表性不足，并通过干途径推进学生研究生学习的领域，其中较少的学生选择作为职业和退休科学家的损失是显着的工作记录。

The City University of New York (CUNY)/Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS) Center for Global Climate Research (CGCR), is based on research related to Geoscience, Atmospheric Science, Sun-Earth interaction and Global Climate Impacts. CUNY/GISS CGCR-Phase II will continue to provide this unique undergraduate student research experience for a second three-year period. Each Summer, ten students will be recruited in the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site and will be distributed among the research teams (five at CUNY, five at GISS) under the mentorship of CUNY faculty and NASA scientists. Students will receive a stipend for 10 weeks of research experience. In addition to recruiting students from four-year colleges, the proposed activities will continue to include an active recruitment of students at the community college level. Student external to CUNY, in greater NYC Region, are also encouraged to apply. The CUNY/GISS REU Site will continue to seek 60% under-represented minorities and 40% female participation each year. The Objectives are to: a)provide undergraduate summer research opportunities in Global Climate Change and related areas at CUNY and GISS to a larger Greater NYC region constituency; b)provide enrichment activities at GISS and CUNY which include basic technical skills workshops andseminars; c)assist students in continuing their research during the academic year, leveraging existing NASA, NSF and NOAA programs; and d)increase the number of students in the STEM pathway to graduate school and to the scientific workforce.Intellectual Merit :Students will be involved in existing research projects which are collaborations with NASA scientists and CUNY faculty funded by NASA and/or NOAA. Students will be engaged in original research and contributing to the general body of knowledge in Global Climate Change. The collaboration occurs within a small urban geographical area, which enables faculty and students to interact with scientists on daily basis. The faculty, students and scientists have developed a unique relationship that has benefited both CUNY and NASA GISS.Broader Impacts :This unique urban CUNY-GISS collaboration was expanded so that more undergraduate students in CUNY and the Greater New York City Region could experience the rich scientific research and the diversity of the melting pot environment of CUNY/GISS. Students are involved in cutting edge research, access to a NASA research center and have the opportunity of presenting their results at national conferences and as co-authors in peered review publications. The CUNY faculty and GISS scientists collaboration has a track record of working with students that are under-represented in STEM areas and advancing student through the STEM pathway to graduate study in areas in which fewer students are selecting as careers and where the loss of retired scientists is significant.
