Oregon State University will host a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site program at its main campus in Corvallis, OR that will support ten undergraduate interns. Interns will be mentored by faculty at the OSU College of Earth, Ocean, and Atmospheric Sciences (CEOAS). This REU Site offers research experiences in physics of ocean circulation, ocean ecology and elemental cycling, and marine geology and geophysics. The objectives of the REU program are to:1) provide students the highest quality research experience in ocean science and an understanding of its interdisciplinary nature;2) provide students with a professional development and training opportunity facilitating persistence and retention in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) career pathways; and3) increase access to and participation in ocean sciences in under-represented groups through targeted recruitment efforts at regional community colleges and four-year colleges and non-research universities serving underrepresented groups.REU students in CEOAS are plugged into major research centers, institutes, and initiatives and have access to premier facilities including: the Regional Class Research Vessels (RCRV) project; the Ocean Observatories Initiative (OOI), which deploys and maintains the Endurance Array in the northeast Pacific; the Marine and Geology Repository (MGR), which curates core collections from the Antarctic and Southern Ocean, North Pacific, and elsewhere; PacWave, which is building the first grid connecting wave energy testing facility in the U.S.; and OSU’s Marine Studies Initiative. The program includes professional development seminars and fieldtrips. Prior interns have participated in research cruises on the R/V Elakha (for coastal and estuarine sampling) , R/V Oceanus, and other UNOLS and NOAA fleet vessels (for multi-week cruises world-wide). The first of the RCRVs, the R/V Taani, will continue and build upon the tradition of intern participation in seagoing research once delivered to OSU.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.

俄勒冈州州立大学将在科瓦利斯主校区举办本科生研究体验（REU）网站计划，或将支持10名本科生实习生。实习生将由OSU地球，海洋和大气科学学院（CEOAS）的教师指导。该网站提供海洋环流物理学，海洋生态学和元素循环，海洋地质学和海洋物理学的研究经验。REU计划的目标是：1）为学生提供海洋科学的最高质量的研究经验，并了解其跨学科性质;2）为学生提供专业发展和培训机会，促进科学，技术，工程和数学（STEM）职业道路的持久性和保留;和3）增加获得和参与海洋科学的机会通过在区域社区学院和四年制学院以及为代表性不足的群体提供服务的非研究型大学进行有针对性的招聘工作，为代表性群体提供服务。CEOAS的REU学生进入主要的研究中心，研究所，区域级研究船（RCRV）项目;海洋观测站倡议（OOI），该倡议在东北太平洋部署和维护耐力阵列;海洋和地质储藏库（MGR），负责管理来自南极和南大洋、北太平洋和其他地方的核心收藏品; PacWave正在美国建造第一个连接电网的波浪能测试设施; OSU的海洋研究计划该计划包括专业发展研讨会和实地考察。以前的实习生参加过Elakha号研究船（沿海和河口取样）、Oceanus号研究船和联合国海洋和海洋法办事处和海洋大气局其他船队船只（在世界各地进行为期数周的巡航）的研究巡航。第一个RCRV，R/V Taani，将继续并建立在实习生参与海上研究的传统上，一旦交付给OSU。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为是值得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的支持。
