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(CUNY)/戈达德空间研究所（GISS）全球气候研究中心（CGCR），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相关的研究。CUNY/GISS cgcr - II阶段将在第二个三年期间继续提供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）站点招募，并将在CUNY教师和NASA科学家的指导下分配给研究小组（五个在CUNY，五个在GISS）。学生将获得为期10周的研究经验津贴。除了从四年制大学招收学生外，拟议的活动将继续包括积极招收社区大学一级的学生。纽约市立大学以外的学生，在大纽约地区，也鼓励申请。纽约市立大学/GISS REU网站每年将继续寻求60%未被充分代表的少数民族和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及相关领域的本科生暑期研究机会；b)在GISS和CUNY提供丰富活动，包括基本技术技能讲习班和研讨会；c)协助学生在学年期间继续他们的研究，利用现有的NASA、NSF和NOAA项目；d)增加通过STEM途径进入研究生院和科学工作队伍的学生人数。智力优势：学生将参与由NASA和/或NOAA资助的与NASA科学家和CUNY教师合作的现有研究项目。学生将从事原创性研究，并为全球气候变化的总体知识体系做出贡献。合作发生在一个小的城市地理区域内，这使得教师和学生每天都能与科学家互动。教职员工、学生和科学家们建立了一种独特的关系，这使纽约市立大学和美国宇航局的GISS都受益。更广泛的影响：这种独特的城市CUNY-GISS合作被扩大，使更多的本科生在CUNY和大纽约城市地区可以体验到丰富的科学研究和CUNY/GISS的大熔炉环境的多样性。学生可以参与前沿研究，进入NASA研究中心，并有机会在国家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。CUNY教师和GISS科学家的合作有着与STEM领域代表性不足的学生合作的记录，并通过STEM途径推动学生进入研究生学习，这些领域的学生很少选择作为职业，而退休科学家的流失也很重要。

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.
