This Project Grant award, provided by the National Science Foundation's Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074), will support a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Texas A&M University-San Antonio. The $372,000 grant, spanning from September 1, 2025 to August 31, 2028, will enable the training of 8 students per summer for 10 weeks during this period. The REU program, titled "INSPIRE: Increasing Student Participation in Research Experiences," will engage students from Texas A&M-San Antonio, local community colleges, and four-year institutions nationwide, including those lacking prior access to research opportunities. Students will work on long-term projects addressing the effects of human activity in a region facing local and national challenges, collecting data on ecosystem health, biodiversity, and environmental chemistry. The program aims to assess whether community-based research can enhance STEM student recruitment and retention. No sub-awards are planned for this grant.
