REU Site: Research Experience for Undergraduates: Interdisciplinary Cutting-Edge Research through the Analysis of Global Data

位于纽约州帕利塞兹的哥伦比亚大学拉蒙特-多尔蒂地球天文台(LDEO)将举办一项本科生研究体验(REU)计划。该项目的标题是“通过全球数据分析进行跨学科前沿研究”，从2024年到2026年，每年暑期将为十名本科生提供为期十周的研究实习机会。该项目带领学生从提出尖端科学问题，到收集和分析数据，发展概念假设，并最终开展活动，向科学和更广泛的受众交流他们的结果。学生与LDEO的跨学科研究社区合作，并由LDEO的200多名博士级别的科学家中至少一人单独指导。全球数据主题的重点是以数据为导向、以解决方案为导向的方法来解决科学问题。关于职业道德、数据展示和分析、科学写作和海报演示以及职业机会的前沿研究和研讨会的系列讲座增加了经验的深度。该计划包括由教育专业人员进行的基于结果的正式评估。该计划由海洋科学部和地球科学部共同资助。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory (LDEO), located in Palisades, NY will host a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program. The title of the program is “Interdisciplinary Cutting-Edge Research through the Analysis of Global Data", and it will provide ten-week research internship opportunities for ten undergraduates each summer from 2024-2026.The program takes students from posing a cutting-edge scientific question, to gathering and analyzing data, developing conceptual hypotheses, and culminates in activities that communicate their results to scientific and broader audiences. Students work with LDEO’s interdisciplinary research community and are individually mentored by at least one of LDEO’s more than 200 PhD-level scientists. The global data theme focuses the experience on data-driven, solutions-oriented approaches to scientific questions. A lecture series on forefront research and workshops in professional ethics, data display and analyses, scientific writing and poster presentations, and career opportunities add depth to the experience. The program includes a formal outcome-based evaluation by an educational professional. The program is co-funded by the Division of Ocean Sciences and the Division of Earth 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.
