Tim Hawthorne wants to share an exciting summer research opportunity for undergraduate students. This summer at Georgia State University in Atlanta, we are pleased to host a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site:
Addressing Social and Environmental Disparities through Community Geography and Geographic Information Systems.
The project is funded by the National Science Foundation. The program runs June 18th - August 2nd.
Research Interests: Working with faculty mentors in one of three research tracks, 10 selected undergraduates will engage in community-based research and fieldwork to quantitatively and qualitatively examine neighborhood change, property markets, air and soil quality, urban green spaces, and neighborhood visioning in partnership with neighborhood residents and community groups.
Compensation: Each REU student will receive a competitive funding package, including: a $3000 stipend, up to $250 in travel support to/from Atlanta, up to $750 for conference presentations, free room and board at GSU, and 3 required texts.
Application Process: Applications are due Friday, March 23rd @ 5 PM EST. Complete application instructions and the application form can be found at http://csaw.gsu.edu/nsf-reu/application-instructions/
