The National Science Foundation has funded a Center of Research Excellence in Science and Technology, establishing the Center for Aquatic Chemistry and the Environment (CREST-CAChE) at Florida International University. The Center, led by Todd Crowl, former iUTAH PI and now Director of the Institute for Water and Environment at FIU, will address the sources, transport, transformation and ecosystem responses to contaminants, pollutants and other natural stressors, under changing land-use and environmental conditions. Former iUTAH project director Rita Teutonico, will serve as CREST-CAChE’s associate director and lead CAChE's education programs. Rita says that they plan to train 60 graduate students over five years and also start a parallel undergraduate research experience program similar to iFellows.
