Undergraduate Mentoring in Environmental Biology (UMEB)

NSF 03-585 (Program Solicitation)

NSF 03-585 remains posted for information purposes only. The FY 2005 program solicitation is under development. The next target date is expected to be in spring 2005.

This program is designed to enable institutions to create innovative programs that will encourage undergraduate students, especially those from under-represented groups, to pursue a career in environmental biology. UMEB supports projects designed to engage undergraduate students in year-round research activities and to provide sustained mentoring support.

UMEB Award abstracts for fiscal years 1999-2001, 2002, and 2003 may also be referenced for additional information.
