The Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory is accepting applications for the 2025 undergraduate & post-baccalaureate independent research program. Go to www.rmbl.org<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/www.rmbl.org__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!nnYXSwX1Pji-1e2ddmL3y32LYQ6hCwEZ8qsK4_uffwCjJDNpzkuwiaiCwbTPclhw-_pJk2fX3kjwhw$> and follow the tab for 'students'.
Each summer, the Rocky Mountain Biological Laboratory (RMBL) offers a 10-week intensive summer program, where 40 undergraduate and post-bac students live on site at the field station and conduct independent field-based research projects under the direction of a RMBL scientist mentor. Students apply to the RMBL Education Program, and when admitted are matched to mentors and projects, based on their interests. Students can select from a wide variety of ecological, behavioral, and evolutionary field projects (full project descriptions on the RMBL website). Students may also supplement their research with a short course in field ecology or wildlife biology.
The RMBL program is a wonderful opportunity for students at any stage of their education- first year through post-bac- who are curious about a career in science, especially with a field component, and would thrive in an immersive experience. Because the RMBL community includes more than 150 graduate students and senior scientists, undergraduates have an opportunity to learn about pathways to science careers, including selecting graduate programs, co-authoring scientific papers and building professional networks. Finally, RMBL is located in Gothic, Colorado, a stunningly beautiful location in the Rockies, providing many opportunities for recreation and natural history study.
RMBL awards NSF-REU funds to approximately 10 students, with another 20 students supported by full and partial RMBL scholarships. These awards are competitive and the RMBL program does fill. We encourage strongly motivated applicants, including all applicants who need financial support, to submit their online application by Feb. 15, 2025.
