Undergraduate Research in Aquatic Environmental Science

9322205 Barnwell该奖项为明尼苏达大学圣保罗分校生物科学学院提供资金，用于建立本科生研究经验网站，为期三年。每年夏天，将从600-700名申请者中选出10名本科生，在与该项目相关的24名教师导师之一的指导下，花10周时间完成一项独立研究项目。至少一半的参与者将是有色人种学生，至少一半将来自明尼苏达大学以外的机构。这个项目的导师是基础科学家，他们对水质研究和湖泊、河流、溪流和湿地中发生的物理、化学和生物过程的分析有共同的兴趣。学生的研究经验将通过每周的学生研讨会和教师对当前研究课题的讨论来补充。教师讨论将为学生提供有关特定主题以及背景术语和概念的最新信息。所有学生将准备一份研究项目的总结，在项目结束时以海报的形式展示。* * *

9322205 Barnwell This award provides funds to the College of Biological Sciences at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul to establish a Research Experiences for Undergraduates SITE for three years. Each summer, 10 undergraduate students will be selected from a pool of 600-700 applicants to spend ten weeks completing an independent research project under the direction of one of the 24 faculty mentors affiliated with the program. At least half of the participants will be students of color and at least half will be from institutions other than the University of Minnesota. Mentors in this program are basic scientists who have a common interest in research related to water quality and the analyses of physical, chemical and biological processes that occur in lakes, rivers, streams and wetlands. The students' research experience will be supplemented by weekly student seminars and faculty discussions of current research topics. The faculty discussions will provide students with the most current information on specific topics as well as background terminology and concepts. All students will prepare a summary of their research project in the form of a display for a poster session at the conclusion of the program. ***
