SESSION: ED23D. Models of Successful Undergraduate Research Programs in the Earth Sciences
With advances in technology, increased field access, changes in funding, increased interdisciplinary work, and global connections, undergraduate research mentoring and programs are varied in their structure and expectations. This session encourages submissions from mentors, departments, and/or institutions to describe models of working with individual students to describing department requirements and institution-wide practices. We encourage submissions that address how mentors and administrators are successfully addressing challenges of supporting students with resources beyond normal grant funding for student work.

*FOR STUDENTS ONLY* SESSION: ED33D. Undergraduate Geoscience Research and Outreach Posters
This poster session will bring together undergraduate student presenters with faculty co-authors to highlight Earth science, geoscience, space science, and geophysics research experiences and outreach efforts. Students from community colleges to research institutions, from the freshman through senior years are encouraged to disseminate their original ongoing and completed projects. The first author on the abstract must be an undergraduate student. This session is co-sponsored by the Council on Undergraduate Research-Geoscience Division, Society of Physics Students, the National Science Foundation- Research Experiences for Undergraduates Program, and the American Geophysical Union.

*FOR STUDENTS IN TWO-YEAR COLLEGES ONLY* SESSION: ED41C. Undergraduate Geoscience Research and Outreach Posters Virtual E-Poster Session Only)
This virtual poster session will bring together two-year college undergraduate student presenters with faculty co-authors to highlight Earth science, geoscience, space science, and geophysics research experiences and outreach efforts. Students from community colleges are encouraged to disseminate their original ongoing and completed projects. The first author on the abstract must be a two-year college student. Authors will participate in this session virtually; physical presence at the Fall Meeting is not required. Authors will receive more information on the logistics of their virtual participation once their abstract has been accepted. This session is co-sponsored by the Council on Undergraduate Research-Geoscience Division, Society of Physics Students, the National Science Foundation- Research Experiences for Undergraduates Program, and the American Geophysical Union.
