Environmental Scienceand Policy
in the Nation's CapitalGeorgetown University’s NSF Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site program
This ten-week program will bring a cohort of ten students to Washington DC to conduct hands-one research in environmental science at Georgetown University and to take part in a mini-curriculum that explores the intersections of science and policy. Participating research mentors have expertise in �elds including ecology, conservation biology, evolutionary genet-ics, mathematical modeling, hydrology, statistics for environmental studies, and earth science. See faculty mentor research descriptions on the program web site.
The 2017 program will run from May 30 - August 4. Students will be housed on campus and will receive a $5250 stipend plus an allowance for food. We are striving for a diverse group, so students from groups typically underrepresented in STEM �elds are strongly encouraged to apply. Review of applications will begin on February 17, 2017 until all positions are �lled.
