The Miami University Research Experience for Undergrads (REU) program in Ecology and Environment is a summer research program supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF). Our program is an exciting opportunity for 9-12 undergraduate students to actively engage in a 10-week collaborative research project.
- Each student focuses on an independent research project.
- Research opportunities are available in the lab or field (aquatic or terrestrial environments).
- Small groups of students and mentors form clusters that meet regularly to discuss current literature related to their projects.
- The summer includes field trips, short courses on ethics and professions in ecology and environmental science, and seminars by guest speakers.
- Participants interact with students from diverse backgrounds and make connections with faculty and graduate students as they learn about Ecology and Environmental Science as a career.
