Summer 2025 ATOC REU in Data Science
ATOC is the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at the University of Colorado Boulder. We are a community of scientists and students with a common goal of better understanding the Earth system. We want you to be a part of this community!
Our REU provides research and educational opportunities for undergraduate students historically excluded from STEM. We strive to enable exploration of what it means to be a scientist and create a meaningful, supportive, and inclusive research community.
