项目摘要

A Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program at Columbia Univeristy's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO), which is located in Palisades, NY, will host fourteen undergraduate interns for a 10 week summer research experience from 2018-2020. The title of the program is "Interdisciplinary Cutting-Edge Research through the Analysis of Global Data", and the "global data" theme focuses the experience on a data-driven and solutions-oriented approach to scientific research. Students work in LDEO's lively interdisciplinary research and education communities and are individually mentored by at least one of LDEO's 180 PhD-level scientists. The goals of the program are for students to learn through their own experience what research is like, so they can explore research careers; for students to develop self-confidence in their independent research and communication abilities and scientific identities, by their coming to understand cutting-edge issues and contributing to their solution; and for them to form lasting professional relationships with scientists. Research projects are in all areas of the Earth, atmospheric, oceanic and environmental sciences and follow the diverse disciplinary interests of the students. Professional development efforts include the three day Cutting Edge Workshop, held at the beginning of the program, which has the goal of teaching students to rapidly assess the purpose, methodology and logic of a scientific paper and to think critically about its importance. Students also participate in Fire Safety Training, Lab Safety Training and Title IX training, a Computing Orientation workshop, a weekly scientific lecture series, a Research Ethics workshop, a scientific writing workshop and a career workshop. Students will be housed in dormitories at Columbia University in New York City, but they will work at LDEO, traveling to and from via bus each day. Students will also be introduced to the capabilities of the LDEO computing environment, and especially to data analysis, database access and the display of data (e.g. on maps). Most of the funding provides support for student stipends, housing and student travel to attend the program. The program conducts a national search for applicants and seeks to engage students who are from schools with limited research opportunities. This program supports the national goal of developing the next generation of scientists and the scientific workforce.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

位于纽约州帕利塞兹的哥伦比亚大学拉蒙特-多尔蒂地球观测站（LDEO）的本科生研究体验（REU）计划将于2018年至2020年举办14名本科生实习生为期10周的夏季研究体验。该计划的标题是“通过全球数据分析进行跨学科前沿研究”，“全球数据”主题将重点放在数据驱动和面向解决方案的科学研究方法上。学生在LDEO活跃的跨学科研究和教育社区工作，并由LDEO的180名博士级科学家中的至少一名单独指导。该计划的目标是让学生通过自己的经验学习研究是什么样的，所以他们可以探索研究生涯;让学生在他们的独立研究和沟通能力和科学身份方面建立自信，通过他们来了解前沿问题并为他们的解决方案做出贡献;并让他们与科学家形成持久的专业关系。研究项目涉及地球，大气，海洋和环境科学的所有领域，并遵循学生的不同学科兴趣。专业发展工作包括在课程开始时举行的为期三天的前沿研讨会，其目标是教学生快速评估科学论文的目的，方法和逻辑，并批判性地思考其重要性。学生还参加消防安全培训，实验室安全培训和第九条培训，计算方向研讨会，每周科学讲座系列，研究伦理研讨会，科学写作研讨会和职业研讨会。学生们将被安置在纽约市的哥伦比亚大学的宿舍里，但他们将在LDEO工作，每天乘坐公共汽车往返。学生还将了解LDEO计算环境的功能，特别是数据分析，数据库访问和数据显示（例如在地图上）。大部分资金用于支持学生的助学金，住房和学生参加该计划的旅行。该计划在全国范围内寻找申请人，并寻求吸引来自研究机会有限的学校的学生。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
