Synopsis: The Biosphere 2 REU provides undergraduates an opportunity to conduct guided research in environmental and Earth systems science at a leading and unique research institution. The sponsor is recruiting a small group of environmental science students for 2021 summer and are particularly interested in applications from indigenous students and students from other underrepresented groups. Students will receive stipends of $6,000 for the 10-week research internship, housing on the Biosphere 2 campus, funding for travel to and from Tucson, AZ and a food allowance. For 2021, the program runs from June 7 to August 13. Students will be selected from across the country to participate in the program. They will conduct research at Biosphere 2.

***The Georgia Tech EAS REU will allow participants to participate virtually. Participants may be allowed to stay on campus for the program if allowed by the university. All REU programming details are subject to change based on the evolving COVID-19 situation.***
