NSF SOARS is an undergraduate-to-graduate bridge and career pathways program designed to promote and support research, mentoring, and community in the atmospheric and Earth system sciences (ESS). ESS is the study of Earth as an interconnected system—from its interior and oceans to its atmosphere and space environment. Proteges (NSF SOARS Interns) engage in original scientific research for 11 weeks of the summer, and can return for up to four summers while enrolled in either undergraduate or graduate studies. Protege’s also gain experience in developing reports and presentations, attending and delivering oral presentations, and benefit from an intentionally curated community mentoring structure. NSF SOARS offers comprehensive financial support for summer research and conference travel.
