Lewis & Clark Community College received a $321,169 Project Grant award effective May 1, 2026, from the National Science Foundation's Division of Biological Infrastructure under the Biological Sciences program (CFDA 47.074). This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site award will support the training and mentorship of 8 undergraduate students annually over three summers (2026-2028) through a 10-week intensive research program conducted at the National Great Rivers Research and Education Center in East Alton, Illinois. Students will engage in multidisciplinary wetland science research spanning community ecology, hydrology, soil science, plant ecology, vertebrate ecology, restoration ecology, and policy, with particular focus on ecosystem structure and function at the confluence of major rivers. Participants will develop independent research skills under guidance from experienced faculty mentors and will disseminate findings through presentations at scientific conferences. The award advances both scientific knowledge and workforce development objectives by recruiting and training students with limited research access, particularly from community colleges and first-generation backgrounds, to foster their transitions into four-year degree programs and careers in wetland management, ecology, and policy. The program strengthens Lewis & Clark Community College's institutional capacity for hands-on research training at the two-year college level and aligns with NSF priorities in artificial intelligence and biotechnology, while contributing to broader understanding of how wetlands respond to modern environmental challenges such as land development and pollution.Federal Project Grant Award Summary
