Welcome!
We are delighted to welcome you to the FUERTE program, a new program for undergraduates at UC Santa Barbara. Funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation, FUERTE is organized by faculty members and researchers in EEMB, and is meant to welcome you into the exciting world of conservation science, marine biology and the exciting ways research in the outdoors can open up new worlds and career options.
We are excited to welcome our 3rd cohort and support our fellows with paid research positions! We have a lot of exciting things ahead and we invite you to explore the FUERTE site and get involved! Join us!
FUERTE Program
The FUERTE Program has recruited all cohorts of Fellows, please watch this space for next steps!
The FUERTE Team is committed to providing research experience to all our UCSB undergraduates. As scientists, we believe that the representation of people from all backgrounds are integral to achieving results in environmental science.
FUERTE is funded by an award from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF 1953492)
