The goals of this ten-week summer REU site at the University of Colorado Boulder and partner institutions is to provide undergraduate students with the opportunity to conduct research in solar and space physics, including space weather, the Sun-Earth connection, solar physics, magnetospheres, Earth's upper atmosphere, the solar wind, and their impacts on society. A diversity of projects will be undertaken ranging from purely theoretical studies to observational data analysis to instrument design and calibration. Students will gain experience in doing authentic research that will prepare them for graduate school and careers in science, conducted under the guidance of experienced mentors in the field of space physics. Understanding the Sun-Earth system is particularly important to our technological society where solar events can potentially disrupt satellite communication, power grids, and GPS technology. This program will target students from small liberal arts colleges and community colleges where research opportunities for undergraduates are often limited. This site leverages the combination of two previously run programs; one at the National Solar Observatory and one operated by CU-Boulder in conjunction with the Boulder Solar Alliance. Participants of this program will participate in an introductory week long summer school to prepare them for their research experience. They will also participate in training on sexual harassment awareness, ethics training, weekly brown bag seminars, a cohort building group project, individual research projects, and a final presentation at a research symposium. These activities support the 3 primary goals of the program: 1) introduce students to authentic research in solar and space physics, 2) give students valuable job skills in the sciences, and 3) provide an environment where long-term relationships between students and their science mentors can develop. Partner institutions (the Boulder Solar Alliance) include the Laboratory for Atmospheric and Space Physics at CU, the National Solar Observatory, the High Altitude Observatory at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center, Southwest Research Institute, Northwest Research Associates, Space Science Institute, and Atmospheric & Space Technology Research Associates.

科罗拉多大学博尔德分校和合作机构为期十周的夏季 REU 站点的目标是为本科生提供进行太阳和空间物理学研究的机会，包括空间天气、日地联系、太阳物理学、磁层、地球高层大气、太阳风及其对社会的影响。 将开展各种项目，从纯理论研究到观测数据分析，再到仪器设计和校准。 学生将获得进行真实研究的经验，为他们进入研究生院和从事科学职业做好准备，这些研究是在空间物理领域经验丰富的导师的指导下进行的。 了解日地系统对于我们的科技社会尤为重要，因为太阳事件可能会扰乱卫星通信、电网和 GPS 技术。该项目将针对小型文理学院和社区学院的学生，这些学院的本科生研究机会往往有限。 该站点利用了两个先前运行的程序的组合；一个在国家太阳天文台，一个由科罗拉多大学博尔德分校与博尔德太阳能联盟联合运营。 该计划的参与者将参加为期一周的介绍性暑期学校，为他们的研究经验做好准备。 他们还将参加性骚扰意识培训、道德培训、每周棕包研讨会、队列建设小组项目、个人研究项目以及研究研讨会上的最终报告。 这些活动支持该计划的 3 个主要目标：1) 向学生介绍太阳和空间物理学的真实研究，2) 为学生提供宝贵的科学工作技能，3) 提供一个环境，让学生和他们的学生之间建立长期关系。科学导师可以发展。合作机构（博尔德太阳能联盟）包括科罗拉多大学大气与空间物理实验室、国家太阳观测站、国家大气研究中心高空观测站、NOAA 空间天气预报中心、西南研究所、西北研究协会、空间科学研究所以及大气与空间技术研究员。
