The program aims to engage a diverse group of 30 undergraduate students (10 per year) in high-level research projects spanning topics such as atmospheric composition, atmosphere-ocean interactions, aerosol-cloud feedbacks, satellite remote sensing, and satellite development. Students will develop technical skills in data analysis, quantitative methods, programming, instrumentation, and science communication. The program leverages UMBC's expertise in Earth and atmospheric sciences to provide students with hands-on research experience and professional development activities. The award period runs from June 1, 2025 to May 31, 2028, and no sub-awards are planned.
