potential projects
REU students will receive hands-on scientific training from Auburn faculty mentors, who are experts in many subdisciplines of warm-water aquatic ecology. Moreover, the students will have opportunities to conduct their research in diverse ecosystems located throughout Alabama. Students will be encouraged to develop an independent research project with their mentor following acceptance into the program. Examples of potential REU projects can be found below.
