Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships in Oceanography (SURFO)

Pockalny/99-12236该奖项为罗德岛大学海洋学研究生院(GSO)的暑期实习项目提供新的资金。该计划自1986年以来一直活跃，被称为夏季本科生海洋学研究奖学金(SURFO)。NSF OCE自1989年以来一直为该项目提供资金。该项目旨在让主修数学和物理的学生接触海洋科学，并寻求为学生提供来自教师导师的一对一研究指导。该计划专门从物理学荣誉学会的成员中招募人员。该计划为8名学生提供实习机会，让他们每年夏天进行为期11周的研究。在暑期结束时，学生们准备一份30分钟的关于他们研究的报告。这项计划包含了由大学分担的大量费用。

Pockalny/99-12236This award provides renewed funding for a summer internship program at University of Rhode Island's Graduate School of Oceanography (GSO). This program has been active since 1986 and is called the Summer Undergraduate Research Fellowships in Oceanography (SURFO). NSF OCE has funded the program since 1989. The program aims to expose students who are majoring in math and physics to ocean sciences and seeks to provide students with a one-on-one research instruction from a faculty mentor. The program specifically recruits from members of the Physics Honor Society. The program provides internships for eight students to conduct eleven weeks of research each summer. At the end of the summer, students prepare a 30-minute presentation on their research. This program contains substantial cost-sharing by the University.
