Duration: June 14 – August 8
Deadline: February 15, 2015
This is the second year of this REU program where 10 students are selected each summer.
The LAKES (Linking Applied Knowledge in Environmental Sustainability) REU
focuses on water quality and phosphorus mitigation in an
interdisciplinary manner over an 8 week program (June 14-August 8), with
projects in sociology, biology, economics, geology, and anthropology.
Students will be provided with room and board and a generous stipend
during their participation in the LAKES program.
This program prioritizes under-represented students, pairing them with
mentors in individual projects that collectively will contribute to a
more complete understanding of the dynamic interactions of our political
economy, our social networks, and our ecosystems. We will start
reviewing applications for the 2015 summer program on February 15th.
