A consortium of six science institutions is launching a program this summer in Woods Hole to bring college undergraduates to the village for a course and a research opportunity (http://www.woodsholediversity.org/pep/ ).
The program, Partnership Education Program (or PEP), is supported by the Woods Hole Diversity Initiative to promote diversity in the Woods Hole science community. The program especially seeks students from minorities under-represented in ocean and environmental sciences -- this includes African American, Hispanic, Native American, Alaska Natives, and Asian Pacific Island students. PEP students will participate in a four-week, four-credit course in Woods Hole, followed by six-to-eight week research projects.
Students may apply online at the PEP website. The priority date for admission and funding consideration is the end of this month (January 31), but we will continue to consider applications in February.
Anyone who has questions about the program can contact PEP Director Dr. Ambrose Jearld, Jr.(508-495-2318 or Ambrose.Jearld[at]NOAA.gov).
