Summer Undergraduate Research Experience Fellowships in Geosciences

史蒂文斯9623451本科生研究理事会的夏季助学金计划为学生/教师团队提供奖学金，让他们在自己的机构进行为期10周的研究项目。该计划有助于纠正学生和教职员工面临的问题，即机构无法维持REU站点，学生无法合理地前往REU站点参加研究计划。可用于CUR的资源增长已经放缓，这在地球科学领域造成了特别严重的资金限制。在1995年的提案中，只有20%获得了资金，而如果有资源的话，至少还有其他三项提案获得了资金。这项奖励将为CUR-GEO提供基础资金，包括足够支持三年每年三次研究金的资金。此外，NSF将匹配Cur筹集的非联邦资金，以支付额外三笔奖学金的费用。配套资金的目的是鼓励向联合地球观测组织提供更多捐款。研究金获得者将由研究中心通过其既定机制选出。结果将在美国地质学会区域会议上由CUR赞助的海报会议上公布。

Stevens 9623451 The Summer Grants Program of the Council on Undergraduate Research offers fellowships to student/faculty teams to conduct 10-week research projects at their home institutions. This program helps to remedy a problem faced by students and faculty in which the institution cannot sustain an REU-Site and the student cannot reasonably travel to an REU-Site to participate in a research program. Increases in resources available to CUR have slowed, creating particularly acute funding limitations in the Geosciences. Among proposals in 1995, only 20% were funded, while at least three others would have been had the resources been available. This award will provide base funding for CUR-GEO, including sufficient funds to support three fellowships each year for three years. In addition, NSF will match non-federal dollars raised by CUR up to the cost of three additional fellowships. The matching funds are intended to encourage additional contributions to CUR-GEO. The fellowship recipients will be selected by CUR through its established mechanisms. Results will be presented in CUR-sponsored poster sessions at regional meetings of the Geological Society of America.
