Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site in Chemical Engineering and Materials

在1987年建立的综合REU和夏季荣誉项目的基础上，明尼苏达大学在化学工程和材料科学领域将加强取得的成果，特别是在提供校外学生参与方面。10名学生将与18位教授互动。研究项目包括定量细胞群，进化界面和团簇，激光控制金属在半导体上的沉积，金属催化剂上的反应速率，以及聚合物薄膜的形成。该项目将挑战学生超越常规本科课程的范围，使他/她接触到各种各样的主题和技术，并为他/她决定未来的职业生涯奠定坚实的基础。

Building upon the integrated REU established in 1987 and a summer honors progrm, the University of Minnesota, in the areas of chemical engineering and materials science, will enhance the gains made particularly in providing for off-campus student participation. Ten students will interact with eighteen professors. Research projects include quantitative cell population, evolving interfaces and clusters, laser controlled deposition of metals on semiconductors, rates of reactions on metal catalysts, and polymer film formation. The program will challenge the student beyond the scope of the regular undergraduate curriculum, expose him/her to a great variety of topics and techniques, and give him a strong foundation upon which to decide a future career.
