Since 1989, NSF has supported bringing students to conduct individual
research projects with a scientist-mentor at either Chesapeake Biological Lab
or Horn Point Lab of the University of Maryland Center for Environmental
Science. This is a great opportunity to conduct research with a mentor and
spend a summer by the Chesapeake Bay.

DETAILS:
- 12 week program: May 18 to August 10, 2014.
- $6,000 stipend plus housing and travel support to and from host institution
- Applications due: February 21, 2014
- Application and guidance http://ww2.mdsg.umd.edu/reu/apply/index.php

We select undergraduates in diverse disciplines, including engineering,
biology, chemistry, physics, mathematics, ecology and marine and
environmental science.

We are particularly interested in supporting talented students from
institutions where access to marine science and to research projects is
limited and who are from underrepresented groups in science, technology,
engineering and math (STEM).
