This new REU Site will be based at California State University, Monterey Bay (CSUMB). The program will bring 12 students to CSUMB to participate in oceanographic research for 10 weeks each summer for three years. CSUMB, a Hispanic-Serving Institution with a strong undergraduate research program, will serve as the hub of this Monterey Bay Regional REU program. In addition to research opportunities at CSUMB, students will be paired with mentors at five partner institutions: Hopkins Marine Station of Stanford University, the Naval Postgraduate School, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute, and Elkhorn Slough National Estuarine Research Reserve. Students will live at CSUMB and the PI will organize all professional development activities, but students will have the opportunity to participate in research at the partner institutions. This program leverages the scientific and educational assets of the Monterey Bay region to increase the diversity and number of students prepared for careers in Ocean Science. To accomplish this goal the PI will recruit participants with an emphasis on students from underrepresented groups and those with limited access to oceanographic research. Students will be recruited nationally and will be provided with stipends, housing for the duration of the program, a meal plan, and transportation.

这个新的REU站点将设在加州州立大学蒙特利湾分校（CSUMB）。该项目将在三年的时间里，每年夏季安排12名学生到中山大学进行为期10周的海洋学研究。CSUMB是一所西班牙裔服务机构，拥有强大的本科研究项目，将成为蒙特利湾地区REU项目的中心。除了在CSUMB的研究机会外，学生还将与五个合作机构的导师配对：斯坦福大学霍普金斯海洋站、海军研究生院、莫斯兰丁海洋实验室、蒙特利湾水族馆研究所和埃尔克霍恩斯劳国家河口研究保护区。学生将住在CSUMB， PI将组织所有专业发展活动，但学生将有机会参与合作机构的研究。该计划利用蒙特利湾地区的科学和教育资产，增加海洋科学职业准备的学生的多样性和数量。为了实现这一目标，该项目将重点招收来自代表性不足的群体和从事海洋学研究机会有限的群体的学生。学生将在全国范围内招募，并将提供津贴，项目期间的住房，膳食计划和交通。
