UCSD Scripps Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program
The UCSD Scripps Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Program
is designed to introduce bright and energetic undergraduates to research
in the marine and earth sciences. The intensive SURF research training
experience prepares students to become research scholars, and stimulates
serious consideration of graduate study. The SURF Program is commited
to increasing the number of students who are from underrepresented
backgrounds in the graduate programs leading to a doctorate in the
sciences.
To find out how to apply for the SURF Program, please visit the SURF
Program website.

NATO SACLANT Undersea Research Centre
The NATO SACLANT Undersea Research Centre (SACLANTCEN) is a civilian research agency of the
North Atlantic Treaty Organization specializing in underwater acoustics, oceanography, systems concept
evaluation and undersea defence studies. It operates under the policy direction of the Supreme Allied
Commander Atlantic (SACLANT) and is situated in La Spezia, Italy, midway along the coast between Genoa
and Pisa, and some 130 km from Florence.
Each year SACLANTCEN offers a number (normally nine) of Research Assistantships to students from NATO
member countries who are in the final year of their Master's degree (or equivalent), or working towards a higher
degree, in subjects such as physics, electronic engineering, oceanography, operations research, signal processing
and computer techniques. For more information visit their summer research page
or their main webpage.

NASA Summer School for High Performance Computational Earth and Space Science.
The NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center's (GSFC) Earth and Space Data Computing Division (ESDCD) and the Goddard Earth Sciences and Technology (GEST) Center are soliciting applications from qualified graduate students to participate in an intensive lecture series in computational Earth and space sciences during the 3-week period July 9-27, 2001. (Thought this program has been occuring annually for almost a decade)
Approximately 15 students will be selected to participate in the 3-week program. Students will be given hands-on computer training and small group interaction experience. Experienced computational scientists will present a series of lectures on advanced topics in computational Earth and space sciences, with emphasis on computational fluid dynamics and particle methods. Vendors will present lectures on developing software for their massively parallel architectures. Both the CRAY T3E and the Beowulf systems will be available for use by the students. Check out their webpage.

Student Physical Oceanography Retreat
STUPOR is a long weekend for physical oceanography students to get-together and meet people, find common ground, and learn about what other people do (and maybe how it relates to what you do!). A mixture of socializing and the exchange of scientific ideas (presentations and posters to a friendly all-student audience and informal conversations)..
