After having a very successful REU program in 2010, SUNY New Paltz will offer its REU program for the second year in 2011 for 12 students. This REU program is funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) which provides a challenging eight-week summer experience conducting research in a comprehensive watershed characterization approach at SUNY-NP in collaboration with the New York State Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). Please see http://www.newpaltz.edu/geology/nsf-reu/
for more information. This NSF grant brings students from colleges and universities throughout the country to New Paltz. Twelve students have been selected for this summer’s REU program out of 51 applicants which include two SUNY NP EGS majors, Christopher Callinan and Casey Halton.
