Significant Opportunities in Atmospheric Research and Science
SOARS offers summer research internships to undergraduates from many disciplines to apply their expertise to understanding the Earth's atmosphere.
SOARS is a multiyear undergraduate-to-graduate bridge program that is equal parts learning community, mentoring program, and research internship. At the heart of SOARS is a ten-week summer program at UCAR/NCAR/UOP in Boulder, Colorado or the laboratories of a SOARS sponsor, where SOARS students (protégés) do research and participate in an eight-week scientific writing and communication workshop. Protégés help define their individual project, conduct research, write a formal research paper, and present their results at a colloquium.
SOARS encourages applications from individuals who are members of a group that is historically under-represented in the atmospheric and related sciences, including students who are Black or African American, American Indian or Alaskan Native, and Hispanic or Latino, female, first generation college students, and students with disabilities. SOARS welcomes lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender students. SOARS encourages application from students who have experienced, and worked to overcome, educational or economic disadvantage; and/or have personal or family circumstances that may complicate their continued progress in research careers.
2010 Summer Program Dates: May 24 – August 6, 2010
Application deadline: February 1, 2010
