We invite undergraduate students to participate in a summer 2009 Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program at the University of Akron, sponsored by the National Science Foundation. This REU site program supports collaborative research on "Ecology at the Urban-Rural Interface," with opportunities to investigate species, interactions, and ecosystems within human dominated landscapes. Students will be immersed in their own research projects that are part of a larger, interactive team of students and faculty. We offer a stipend, housing, and support for research supplies and travel to a scientific meeting to present your results.
Review of applications will begin March 15, 2009. Women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply. For more information, and an application: visit us on the web at www3.uakron.edu/biology/fieldstation/reu.htm, contact the Program Director, Dr. Randy Mitchell (330-972-5122 or [email protected]), or write to Biology REU Program, Department of Biology, The University of Akron, Akron, OH 44325-3908.
