This is just a reminder that applications are open for the Aquaculture Experiential Opportunities for Undergraduate Students (AquEOUS) Fellowship, an USDA Research and Extension Experience for Undergraduates (REEU) at the University of Maine's Wabanaki Center and Aquaculture Research Institute (ARI) and in collaboration with Wabanaki Youth in Science. 

This unique fellowship offers undergraduate students from around the nation an opportunity to combine indigenous science and STEM concepts to solve real-world problems in aquaculture at the University of Maine’s world class aquaculture facilities. Mentorship will be provided by interdisciplinary faculty and indigenous knowledge keepers.

Through this fellowship, students will have an array of research foci from which to choose. They will co-design projects using concepts learned from their mentors as well as a seminar, field trips, and workshops in indigenous knowledge, applied aquaculture science, science communications, and STEM concepts. Students will live at the University of Maine in Orono for 10 weeks and will participate in a virtual seminar. A stipend and room and board will be included.

We invite students and faculty to learn more about the Aquaculture Experiential Opportunities for Undergraduate Students (AquEOUS) Fellowship and apply by January 31st (note: application date has been extended). Please feel free to share with anyone who may be interested in this unique program. 

Rising Junior and senior undergraduates interested in science communications, marine and land based aquaculture, indigenous science, youth extension, conservation/restoration aquaculture, aquatic animal health and coastal systems should apply. Any major is welcome. 

If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us directly at a...@maine.edu.
