PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The Environmental Science Institute (ESI) of the University of Texas at Austin announces an NSF-funded program during the summer of 2015 for undergraduates interested in environmental science research. Students will be trained in laboratory and field methods applied to studies of global change and its impacts and will work on independent projects under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Project areas are interdisciplinary and encompass the fields of chemistry, biology, ecology, urban ecology, policy, civil engineering, marine science, and geological sciences.

Students will participate in a weekly research seminar series, portfolio creation, and professional development activities. Students will also participate in field excursions related to scientific research. These 1-2 day activities may require physical exertion involving hiking, caving, camping, and/or boat rides in hot and humid weather. The summer program will conclude with a research poster session and open house.

Your summer research will be in one of four major themes:

-Impacts on Ecosystems

-Impacts on Watersheds and the Land Surface

-Campus Sustainability

-Reconstructing Past Global Change



Each REU student will be part of a separate research group headed by a faculty mentor, but all will come together regularly for cross-cohort seminars and field experiences and to examine and participate in the projects of your colleagues.
Please note: this summer’s program is dependent on award and receipt of funds by the University of Texas at Austin from the National Science Foundation.

The application deadline is FEBRUARY 16, 2015.
