Welcome our 2019 Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU): Observing the Ocean students.
REU students will participate in a 10-week summer program focusing on innovative ocean observing technologies to address issues facing the coastal oceans, such as hypoxia, harmful algal blooms, ocean acidification and pollution. Students will work with faculty and staff mentors in laboratories and on seagoing projects to acquire the analytical skills for multidisciplinary oceanographic research.
Undergraduates from throughout the U.S. are invited to apply to the “Observing the Ocean” Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) summer program, hosted by Texas A&M Oceanography and Geochemical & Environmental Research Group, and funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF).
Application deadline is fast approaching – Feb. 19 !!
