The Cooperative Institute for Climate, Ocean, and Ecosystem Studies (CICOES), a unit within the College of the Environment (CoEnv) at the University of Washington (UW), will host a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site for undergraduates interns. The project will bring students to the campus in Seattle, WA for nine weeks each summer for three years. Students will be recruited nationally from all major science and engineering disciplines mostly during their Junior year in college. Special efforts will be made to recruit students from under-represented groups and from community colleges. Each student will be matched with a mentor and a research project. Professional development activities conducted during the nine-week period will include a special lecture series, a Responsible Conduct of Research workshop, training on how to prepare a scientific poster, and discussions about graduate school with a postdoc/graduate student panel. During the summer each student conducts independent research and gives final oral and poster presentations at the end of the program. Mentors participating in this REU program will provide foundational training in core disciplines and promote collaboration across research fields. Students will be encouraged to present their results at scientific conferences after the program is over and/or co-author publications in peer-reviewed journals.As a multidisciplinary, cooperative institute, CICOES facilitates interactions between academic and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) government scientists and among academic units within and outside the UW CoEnv. CICOES’ REU program will immerse students in the process of how scientific research is conceived, designed, conducted, interpreted, and communicated. Students will explore the climate and environmental research in research projects about the earth system. Potential research topics include oceanography, fisheries, conservation and resource management, earth sciences, environmental engineering, and marine policy. Students will also have access to state-of-the-art analytical instruments, sampling devices, and modeling programs for their research projects that across multiple disciplines.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

气候，海洋和生态系统研究所（CICOES）是华盛顿大学（UW）的环境学院（COENV）的一个单位，将为本科生（REU）网站提供本科生的研究经验。该项目将使学生每年夏天将学生带到华盛顿州西雅图市的校园持续九个星期。学生将在全国范围内从所有主要的科学和工程学科中招募，主要是在大学大三的时候。将做出特别的努力，以招募来自代表性不足的群体和社区大学的学生。每个学生都将与一个心理和研究项目相匹配。在九周期间进行的专业发展活动将包括一个特别的讲座系列，负责任的研究研讨会，培训如何准备科学海报的培训以及与研究生院有关研究生院的讨论。在夏季，每个学生都进行独立研究，并在计划结束时进行最终的口头和海报演讲。参加此REU计划的导师将在核心学科中提供基础培训，并促进跨研究领域的合作。该计划结束后，将鼓励学生在科学会议上呈现他们的结果，并在同行评审的期刊上进行共同撰稿人出版物。作为跨学科的合作研究所，Cicoes促进了学术和国家海洋和大气管理（NOAA）政府科学家以及UW COENV内部和内部学术部门之间的互动。 CICOES的REU计划将使学生在科学研究的设计，设计，进行，解释和交流的过程中浸入学生。学生将探索有关地球系统的研究项目中的气候和环境研究。潜在的研究主题包括海洋学，渔业，保护和资源管理，地球科学，环境工程和海洋政策。学生还将可以使用跨多个学科的研究项目获得最先进的分析工具，抽样设备以及建模计划。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响来评估的审查标准。
