Program dates are July 12-29. Approximately 30 students will attend the University of New Mexico for six weeks and can earn up to nine transferable college credits in math, writing, and Native American studies. In this residential program, students take three courses, learn about how to succeed in college, and participate in a number of field-trips and activities designed to enhance their awareness of Native communities social, cultural, political, and environmental issues. The University of Maryland School of Medicine sponsors a number of summer research programs for under-represented minority students both on our campus in Baltimore and at several foreign sites.

Deadlines are a guideline for receipt of applications.
If you are in doubt, please inquire. This site is the location of Plattsburgh State University's Ecosystem Studies Field Laboratory, an instrumented portion of the upper Little Chazy River watershed that is dedicated to undergraduate teaching and research. The research program will focus upon interdisciplinary investigations of ecosystem-level processes in the pine barrens and the impact of natural and anthropogenic disturbances resulting from the January 1998 ice storm. Everyone who is accepted into the program will be considered for a NSF-REU Research Fellowship. It is a unique opportunity for anyone considering a graduate degree in the sciences.
