Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU)

PENDING NSF FUNDING APPROVAL (for Summer 2027)

Pending Program: New REU Site: Environmental Resilience and Water Sustainability in Urbanizing Landscapes

Students will be trained in research methods for understanding the environmental resilience and water resource challenges of urbanizing landscapes. Students will work on independent projects under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Project areas are interdisciplinary and encompass the fields of environmental science, geosciences, atmospheric science, hydrology, ecology, geography, and environmental engineering. Each student will be part of a research project led by a faculty mentor, but all will come together regularly for cross-cohort seminars to learn from the projects of research colleagues.
