REU at Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory

RMBL Summer REU/Undergrad/Postgrad Research Opportunity The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory is now accepting applications for the 2022 undergraduate/postgrad research program. Go to www.rmbl.org and follow the link for 'students'. Each year the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL) matches approximately 40 students with mentors from across the country. Students have opportunities to work on a wide array of ecological and evolutionary field projects. Additionally, students have the opportunity to supplement their research project with additional training in field ecology or wildlife biology. RMBL provides REU funding for approximately 10 students. RMBL also makes available additional scholarships. Consequently, financial need should not preclude students from applying. This is a wonderful opportunity for students thinking about a career in the sciences. RMBL is located in Gothic, Colorado, a stunningly beautiful location in the Rockies. Because we host more than 100 graduate students and senior scientists, undergraduates have an opportunity to learn about graduate programs from around the world. Many undergraduates end up as co-authors on scientific papers and start building professional networks that foster their career across a lifetime. We have had many undergraduates turn their summer research into a senior thesis project. Our program does fill. We encourage strongly motivated applicants, including applicants who need financial support, to submit their online application by Feb. 15 for REU applicants and by March 1 for RMBL Scholarships. Students can apply for both sources of funds with one application.
