NSF Spatiotemporal Innovation Center (STC) REU Opportunity

7-11 weeks from May 2023 to September 2023

The NSF Spatiotemporal Innovation Center (STC) is looking for several undergraduate research assistants to serve as NSF REU Fellows from May 2023 to September 2023 depending on your time availability. They will potentially work at the George Mason University site (Fairfax, VA) or the Harvard University site (Cambridge, MA), pending on funding availability from NSF.

This opportunity is supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF) I/UCRC and Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Programs, which enable undergraduate students to obtain research experience and consider a career path in spatiotemporal domains (e.g., CS, GIS, Geosciences, etc.). NSF REU fellows will work in a team with graduate students, postdocs, research staff and faculty at one of the center sites and will conduct research related to spatiotemporal issues. NSF REU fellows also have the opportunity to attend a professional conference to present their research results. Fellows may participate in a variety of research projects.

Requirements:

    • Applicants must be currently enrolled undergraduate students.
    • U.S. citizen or permanent resident status is required.
    • Applicants should be able to work as NSF REU fellows for at least 7 consecutive weeks. Starting date is flexible.
    • NSF REU fellows will receive stipend and reimbursement for attending one conference related to the research project.
    • We encourage applications from underrepresented groups, such as women, Native-Americans, African-Americans, Hispanics, Veterans, and students with disabilities.

A complete application includes:

    • CV
    • Statement of interest (~200 words)
    • Contacts (email and phone #) of two referees

Selection process:

There will be three steps for selecting the students:

  1. Site directors will collaboratively select a pool of promising applicants.
  2. Faculty members will select the relevant applicants who match their interest from the pool.
  3. A videoconference interview will be arranged with the selected candidates to evaluate the applicant’s background and skills in communication, teamwork, and research interest.

Interested students please email your application to STC email address (stc @ gmu.edu). The review of applications will start in early April of 2023, and end until the positions are filled. Please contact Dr. Chaowei Yang (cyang3 @ gmu.edu) or and Dr. Wendy Guan (wguan @ cga.harvard.edu) with questions about the NSF REU Summer Fellows in Geographic Information Science program at George Mason University or Harvard University respectively. We look forward to receiving your applications.

Note: The length of the REU term will depend on the pandemic situation and university policy this summer. We will follow each university’s guidelines for on-site or remote work arrangements when the time comes. If on-site is possible, the program will be a 7-week term, while if remote work is necessary, it could be up to 11-week term. Details will be discussed with the selected candidates during or after the interviews.

George Mason University and Harvard University are equal opportunity/affirmative action employers. All qualified applicants will receive consideration as NSF REU follows without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, age or protected veteran status.

REU – Green Infrastructure for Sustainable Urban Environments

Green Infrastructure for Sustainable Urban Environments (GI4SUrE) Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) is a 10-week summer program designed to expose and immerse 10 undergraduate students to unique green infrastructure (GI) research.

Green infrastructure is a way to build better infrastructure, as a part of the National Academy of Engineering’s Grand Challenge, to restore and improve urban infrastructure. This program lets students perform field, laboratory, or modeling studies to explore how GI can mitigate the effects of urban runoff on surface water quality and hydrology. This research will affect not only eastern Tennessee, but any area that deals with urban stormwater runoff. Students will also dive into a professional and social atmosphere that will develop their fundamental research methodologies and critical thinking skills.

When does this program happen?

May 27 through August 6, 2023. This includes move-in/move-out days.

What does the program provide?
  • Financial Package
    • Stipend: $6,000
    • Round Trip Travel Assistance to and from Knoxville TN
    • On-Campus, suite-style housing
  • Research Experience
    • Students will engage in research that may include field work, lab work, and modelling while being immersed in social development with both this cohort and other summer programs at the University of Tennessee

Who can apply?

We are accepting applications now, and the application deadline is March 1st. You are responsible for ensuring that your application is complete prior to the application deadline. We will use a rolling admissions process (exceptional applicants may be accepted before the deadline) so you should submit your application early.

Students must meet these conditions:

  • Be a citizen, a permanent resident of the United States, or an eligible non-citizen.
  • Be enrolled in college for Fall 2023. Students graduating by May 23, 2023 are not eligible.
  • Have successfully completed an introductory course in a STEM major. Applicants must be at least a rising sophomore and have taken a course in biology, chemistry, physics, ecology, environmental science, social sciences, or engineering.
  • Be eligible to participate in the entire program, possibly including research that requires work on the weekends and performing field work and lab work.

We especially encourage applications from students who are from groups underrepresented in STEM, are veterans, disabled, or early in their undergraduate coursework.

REU- Aquatic Chemical Ecology (ACE) at Georgia Tech

The Program

Aquatic Chemical Ecology (ACE) at Georgia Tech is a summer research program supported by the National Science Foundation REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) program. ACE at Georgia Tech gives you the opportunity to perform exciting research with our faculty in the schools of Biological Sciences, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, Chemistry & Biochemistry, Civil & Environmental Engineering, and Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering. You’ll participate in research with one or more of our faculty, learn about careers in science and engineering, and see how scientists blend knowledge and skills from physics, chemistry and biology to investigate some of the most challenging problems in environmental sciences. We encourage applications from undergraduate students who are citizens or permanent residents of the U.S., especially attending universities other than Georgia Tech. The following three areas comprise the research activities covered by faculty in the Aquatic Chemical Ecology program:

  • Area 1. Biological and geochemical transformations of chemicals in aquatic ecosystems.
  • Area 2. Sensory biology and ecology of aquatic chemical communication.
  • Area 3. Ecological roles and consequences of chemicals in aquatic environments.
Overview

Our ACE NSF-sponsored summer research program places you with a faculty mentor for a 10-week summer period spanning from Sunday May 21st, 2023 to Friday July 28, 2023. You’ll design a research project, carry it out and present the results to the professors and students in a final symposium. You will receive a stipend amount of $7000. To live on campus safely, you will also be provided an individual bedroom with shared kitchen facilities in an environment that is structured based on CDC, state and federal guidelines regarding social distancing, face covering, on-campus surveillance testing​, and vaccinations. Your summer cohort will engage in activities specific to ACE, but also interact and be co-housed with participants in five other College of Sciences REU programs.

Our ACE faculty (in Civil & Environmental Engineering, Chemical & Biomolecular Engineering, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences, Chemistry & Biochemistry, and Biological Sciences) form a core group with a strong history of working together on joint research grants in this area, with the skills required to guide undergraduates in basic and applied research on multiple phases of chemical signaling processes.
