Primarily Undergraduate Institutions (PUI’s):
LI-COR offers the LEEF Program to PUI’s by providing partial funding or special discounts to purchase instruments for use in the classroom and also for undergraduate research either in the laboratory or in the field.
LEEF Program:
The LI-COR Environmental Educational Fund (LEEF) program is part of LI-COR's ongoing commitment to help colleges enhance their undergraduate science programs using inquiry-based learning. LEEF helps undergraduate students obtain experience in the theory and practical application of current technology and instrumentation. This program includes special packages in Ecophysiology (LI-6400XT Portable Photosynthesis System), Climate Change (LI-8100 Automated Soil CO2 Flux System) and Light Measurements (various light sensors and readout devices). In 2009, LI-COR Biosciences is contributing more than $1,000,000 to PUIs through this program.
