CALDER SUMMER UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH (CSUR) - 2000

The Louis Calder Center - Biological Field Station (Fordham University)
announces paid research opportunities for undergraduate students in our
Calder Summer Undergraduate Research (CSUR) program.  We offer students
hands-on experience and training in a wide variety of biological field
studies, including forest ecology, freshwater ecology, mammology, microbial
ecology, ecology Lyme disease, insect-plant interactions, and the effects of
urbanization on ecosystem processes. Our field station is located near the
village of Armonk, in northern Westchester County, NY.

Successful CSUR candidates will be matched with staff scientists with
similar research interests. This year we will offer up to eight (8) awards
to enthusiastic, qualified undergraduates interested in conducting
independent research for 12 weeks during the summer in one of the areas of
focus for summer 2000.  Stipends of  $3,000 will be awarded to successful
applicants.  There is housing on site and limited funds to support research
and local travel.    Applications are due in the CSUR office by March 10,
