We are pleased to announce the 2010 Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program Ecology of Human-Dominated Landscapes (http://www.muohio.edu/ecoreu), funded by the National Science Foundation and Miami University. This is an exciting paid summer research opportunity for undergraduate students. For your information, here are a few details regarding our program:
• 8 positions at our REU site
• 10 weeks between May 24 and August 6, 2010
This REU site focuses on collaborative research in ecology focused on human-dominated landscapes. Students will be immersed in their own research projects, while being part of a larger team of students and faculty. Each student will receive:
• $4200 stipend
• Free housing
• Funds for travel to and from Miami University in Oxford, OH
• Funds to use for their research
• 12 credit hours, tuition-free and transferable
We desire undergraduates with interest in ecology and environmental science from any institution. Prior coursework in ecology and/or environmental science is recommended and we prefer students who are entering their junior or senior years. Students must be enrolled as an undergraduate student the following fall semester to qualify for our program. Students must also be US citizens or permanent residents. Miami University is an Equal Opportunity Employer. Women and minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.
Applications will be reviewed starting February 1, 2010.
