RCMS: Research Careers for Minority Scholars in Earth System Science

9550715鹰克拉克亚特兰大大学(CAU)将通过在地球系统科学(EES)中建立少数民族学者研究生涯(RCMS)计划，继续建立其在地球系统科学(EES)方面的综合学术、研究和推广计划。地球系统科学是研究地球及其组成部分的科学，包括大气、海洋区、生物和水文循环、地理特征及其相互作用和演化。拟议的计划是地球科学中现有的RCMS计划的产物。CAU的ESS方案的总体目标是使该大学的大部分教职员工和学生接触到研究地球、大气和海洋之间相互作用的跨学科性质，同时增加在这一领域和相关领域攻读研究生学位和职业的少数族裔学生的数量。该项目将支持以下活动：(1)设立16个本科生研究职位，一年级8个，二年级4个，三年级4个；(2)为ESS预科学生提供暑期研究体验；(3)学生前往国家实验室和会议。

9550715 Hawk Clark Atlanta University (CAU) will continue to build its comprehensive academic, research, and outreach program in Earth System Science (EES) through the establishment of a Research Careers for Minority Scholars (RCMS) Program in ESS. Earth System Science is the study of the earth and its component parts, which include the atmosphere, maritime regions, biological and hydrologic cycles, and geographic features, their interaction and evolution. The proposed program is an outgrowth of an existing RCMS program in Geosciences. The overall objective of the ESS program at CAU is to expose a large segment of the University's faculty and students to the interdisciplinary nature of the study of the interactions among the earth, its atmosphere and oceans while simultaneously increasing the number of minority students pursuing graduate degrees and careers in this and related areas. This project will support the following activities: (1) Establishment of sixteen undergraduate student research positions, eight in year one, four in year two, four in year three; (2) Summer research experiences for pre-sophomore ESS students; and (3) Student travel to national laboratories and conferences.
