A new Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site will be located at Texas A&M University's campus in College Station, TX. The Geochemical and Environmental Research Group (GERG) and the Department of Oceanography will host 10 REU students for 10 weeks each summer, and the program will focus on innovative ocean observing technologies. Students will have access to a suite of ocean data acquisition technologies incorporated in TAMU's offshore buoy system, glider technology, remote real-time measurements from moored instrumentation, shipboard field surveys with CTD profiling and water sampling. A group project to develop and deploy a glider mission in the Gulf of Mexico onboard a research vessel will promote team building. Training modules on sensors, data analysis, graphical representation of oceanographic data, data management, and science writing will be provided. Students will participate in weekly REU seminars, and at the program end, they will demonstrate their communication skills with a final written report and a seminar presentation at the GERG REU Student Research Symposium. Although the program is open to students who are US citizens or permanent residents attending any university, local recruitment efforts will be coordinated with faculty in the NSF-funded Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP) program which supports mentoring of STEM majors across TAMU branch campuses (Kingsville, Corpus Christi, Prairie View and West Texas).

本科生（REU）网站的新研究经验将位于德克萨斯州A＆M大学的校园，位于德克萨斯州大学车站。 地球化学和环境研究小组（GERG）和海洋学系将每年夏天将10周的REU学生接待10周，该计划将重点关注创新的海洋观察技术。学生将可以使用TAMU的离岸浮标系统，滑翔机技术，系泊仪器的远程实时测量，带有CTD分析和水抽样的船上现场调查的远程实时测量的海洋数据采集技术。一个小组项目，旨在在墨西哥湾开发和部署滑翔机任务，研究船将促进团队建设。 将提供有关传感器的培训模块，数据分析，海洋数据，数据管理和科学写作的图形表示。学生将参加每周的REU研讨会，在计划结束时，他们将通过最终的书面报告和Gerg REU学生研究研讨会上的研讨会演讲来展示自己的沟通技巧。尽管该计划向美国公民或上任何大学的永久居民开放，但本地招聘工作将与NSF资助的研究生教育联盟和教授（AgeP）计划协调，该计划支持在Tamu Branch Campuses（Kingsville，Corpus Christi，Prairie and West Texas）的Tamu Branch Campuses的STEM专业的指导。
