This summer at Georgia State University in Atlanta, we
are pleased to host a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site:
Addressing Social and Environmental Disparities through Community Geography and
Geographic Information Systems. The
project is funded by the National Science Foundation. The program runs June 18th - August 2nd.
Research Interests: Working with faculty mentors in one
of three research tracks, 10 selected undergraduates will engage in
community-based research and fieldwork to quantitatively and qualitatively
examine neighborhood change, property markets, air and soil quality, urban
green spaces, and neighborhood visioning in partnership with neighborhood
residents and community groups.
Compensation: Each REU student will receive a competitive
funding package, including: a $3000 stipend, up to $250 in travel support
to/from Atlanta, up to $750 for conference presentations, free room and board
at GSU, and 3 required texts.
