The National Science Foundation (NSF) has awarded a $270,895 Project Grant under its Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to Saint Louis University. The grant will fund a 10-week Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site focused on "GeoAI-Driven Computational Sustainability in the Human-Environment Nexus." The REU program will train 9 students in interdisciplinary computational sustainability research, with an additional 27 students from universities with limited research opportunities or underrepresented in STEM to also participate. The research projects will develop methods and data to support decision-makers in designing healthier, equitable, and sustainable cities, with a focus on addressing local sustainability and climate resilience needs in St. Louis, Missouri. The program will culminate in a final symposium to disseminate the research findings to academic, private, non-profit, and government stakeholders. This award reflects NSF's mission to promote basic research and education in the social, behavioral, and economic sciences.
