The National Science Foundation awarded The Leland Stanford Junior University a $390,000 Project Grant under the Geosciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.050) from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2026.

The grant funds the Stanford SURGE - Sustainability Undergraduate Research in Geoscience and Engineering program, which will provide mentored summer research experiences for 30 undergraduate students in areas related to sustainability. Students will be matched with Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability faculty based on research interests and will receive scientific training in a faculty research group. The program also includes graduate school preparation activities and a weekly seminar series. At the end of the summer, students will present their research findings at a symposium. The goal is to help diversify the pipeline for postgraduate programs and careers in sustainability fields. Program success will be measured via student and faculty surveys, and scholars will be tracked after the program.
