The Merck/AAAS Undergraduate Science Research Program (USRP) is a national competitive awards program available in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Up to 15 new awards will be made annually. The funding supports research stipends for undergraduate students and ancillary programs that foster interactions between these departments. The program goals are to: enhance undergraduate education through research experience that emphasize the interrelationship between chemistry and biology; encourage students to pursue graduate education in chemistry and life sciences; and foster undergraduate programs and activities that bridge chemistry and biology.

Environmental Careers Organization: Conservation Careers Diversity Internship Program
The Conservation Careers Diversity Internship Program provides students with paid training and research opportunities at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and USDA Forest Service. The program focuses principally on Hispanic, African, Asian, and Native Americans--groups traditionally underrepresented in the conservation field. While all students with an interest in conservation may apply, the program is designed primarily to serve students with interest in these and other related academic disciplines: Forestry, Soil Science, Civil Engineering, Range Conservation, Natural Resources, Plant Science, Hydrology, Occupational Safety & Health, Archeology, GIS, Wildlife Science, Fishery Science, Biology, Parks and Recreation, and Environmental Education.

Naval Research Lab, Washington D.C. - Laura Thompson and Joe PollardMARC Undergraduate Student Training in Academic Research (U*STAR) Awards provide support for students who are members of minority groups that are underrepresented in the biomedical sciences to improve their preparation for graduate training in biomedical research. These minority groups include, but are not limited to, African Americans, Hispanic Americans, Native Americans (including Alaska Natives), and natives of the U.S. Pacific Islands. The program can also support efforts to strengthen the faculty, science course curricula, and biomedical research training programs and infrastructure at institutions with significant enrollments of minority students.
