This award provides renewed funding for undergraduate students to conduct experimental, observational, theoretical, and computational research activities in earth science, planetary science, and astronomy at the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH) in New York City. Up to eight students per year will be selected to perform research into topics ranging from meteoritics, to volcanology, to experimental or theoretical astrophysics. The participants will be rigorously trained and well-educated in the fundamentals of the scientific enterprise, and will receive valuable research experience in an active, immersive, and inclusive research and education environment.Although it recruits from a nationwide pool, this Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site particularly leverages longstanding collaborations between scientists in the City University of New York (CUNY) system and at AMNH. CUNY is a 225,000-student urban public university network whose students primarily come from communities underrepresented in science. The CUNY/AMNH partnership will therefore enhance the REU Site's ability to recruit students in urban, underserved populations. In addition to their primary research activities, REU interns will also participate in Museum programs, attend field trips, colloquia, and conferences to present research, and present their work in a scientific symposium open to the public.This site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program. This program is co-funded by the Division of Earth Science in the Directorate for Geoscience and the Division of Astronomical Sciences in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences.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.

该奖项为本科生在纽约市美国自然历史博物馆（AMNH）的地球科学，行星科学和天文学的实验，观察，理论和计算研究活动提供了新的资金。每年最多将选出多达八名学生，以对从气象，火山学到实验或理论天体物理学的主题进行研究。参与者将在科学企业的基础上受到严格的培训和受过良好的教育，并将在积极，沉浸式和包容性的研究和教育环境中获得宝贵的研究经验。尽管它是从全国范围内招募的，尽管它是从全国范围的泳池中招募的，但这种研究经验（REU）网站（REU）网站尤其是在Amn New York and New York的科学家之间的长期合作（REU）。 CUNY是一个225,000名学生的城市公立大学网络，其学生主要来自科学领域不足的社区。因此，CUNY/AMNH合作伙伴关系将增强REU网站招募城市服务不足的人口学生的能力。除了主要的研究活动外，REU实习生还将参加博物馆计划，参加实地考察，教区和会议以展示研究，并在科学研讨会上向公众开放的工作。该网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作支持。该计划由地球科学司在地球科学局和数学和物理科学局的天文科学局共同资助。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是值得通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛影响的审查标准来通过评估来通过评估来支持的。
