CILER facilitates research opportunities for students by fostering collaborations between the University of Michigan, Great Lakes Environmental Research Lab (GLERL), NOAA, and other research institutes through formal and informal programs. CILER also sponsors students to work with GLERL researchers on a range of topics. Several students have earned either their Master's or doctorate degrees while employed through this CILER program. The opportunity and ability to conduct top-notch research is a unique and valuable experience for most students.
