HWS places significant focus on undergraduate research by developing opportunities in class during the academic year, as well as offering student opportunities to conduct more comprehensive research projects during the long-running Summer Research Program on the HWS campus. The real-time collection of data and the dissemination of information during outreach events about weather research and the opportunities to study atmospheric science as part of the Geoscience curriculum at HWS were of benefit to the students. These opportunities piqued many students interest and four of the students who participated in GEO-WIND-HWS-II applied to work in the 2018 HWS Summer Research Program and were accepted.
