Agriculture and Natural Resources Focus of New Summer Institute for Undergrads
Through a new Summer Institute scheduled from June 7-July 3, ten undergraduate students from underrepresented populations will have the opportunity to explore the wealth of graduate programs offered by the University of Delaware's College of Agriculture and Natural Resources at UD's main campus in Newark. Students selected for the program will work side-by-side with researchers on projects ranging from avian flu to food safety, biofuels, rice genomics, stormwater ecology, landscaping to reduce our carbon footprint, declining black duck populations and other topics. They also will go on field trips and participate in workshops, seminars, and social activities with other UD undergraduate students, including trips to nearby cities and other locations of interest.
