2019 Great Lakes Summer Fellows In partnership with NOAA GLERL, CIGLR has the pleasure of hosting a group of bright, upcoming scientists each year as part of our Great Lakes Summer Fellows Program. During the course of their 12-week fellowship, upper-level undergraduate and graduate students are exposed to a broad range of disciplines while working on a substantive research topic under the mentorship of a CIGLR or NOAA GLERL scientist.
