Dear Colleagues,
Please let your undergraduate students know about an opportunity to participate
in a new summer research internship with the NSF-sponsored Research Experience
for Undergraduates (REU) site at University of Wisconsin-Stout in Menomonie,
Wisconsin.
The LAKES (Linking Applied Knowledge in Environmental Sustainability) REU
focuses on water quality and phosphorus mitigation in an interdisciplinary
manner over an 8 week program (June 15-August 8), with projects in sociology,
microbiology, economics, geology, anthropology, mathematics, or communications.
Students will be provided with room and board and a generous stipend during
their participation in the LAKES program.
This program prioritizes under-represented students, pairing them with mentors
in individual projects that collectively will contribute to a more complete
understanding of the dynamic interactions of our political economy, our social
networks, and our ecosystems. The deadline to submit applications for the 2014
summer program is March 1st. Complete program information can be found here:
http://www.uwstout.edu/lakes/. Attached you will also find a flyer and a
brochure. If you don't mind, please pass along this information to your
colleagues around the U.S.
Questions can be directed to: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>
