The 10-week AquEOUS fellowship is an USDA funded Research and Extension Experience for Undergraduates (REEU) program which offers undergraduate students from around the nation a unique opportunity to combine ecological knowledge from indigenous science with STEM concepts from western science to solve real-world problems in aquaculture at the University of Maine’s world class aquaculture facilities. Mentorship will be provided by the interdisciplinary faculty of the Aquaculture Research Institute and knowledge keepers of the Wabanaki communities as facilitated through the Wabanaki Center.
Applied research questions will be identified by Wabanaki leaders and aquaculture sector participants in Maine. Students will have an array of research foci from which to choose. They will co-design projects using concepts learned from their mentors, the AquEOUS seminar, field trips, and workshops in two-eyed seeing, applied aquaculture science, science communications, and STEM concepts.
