One of the deficiencies of the undergraduate chemical education is a lack of emphasis on current laboratory experiments that directly relate to frontier chemical research. This project implements several surface chemistry experiments to study gas adsorption on oxide-supported metal catalysts, a student research project to study the mechanism involved in the hydroformylation of olefins and two new experiments in organic chemistry phenomena, surface science and ultra vacuum techniques as well as insights into several fundamental chemical concepts. This instrumentation, which includes a FTIR, a vacuum-gas line specially designed for surface chemistry studies and a temperature controller for temperature-dependant studies, provides undergraduate the much needed exposure to some current major direction is chemical research and some hands-on experience in state-of-the-art instrumentation. The institution is matching the NSF grant with an equal amount of funds.

本科化学教育的不足之一是缺乏对当前与前沿化学研究直接相关的实验室实验的重视。该项目实施了几个表面化学实验来研究气体在氧化物负载金属催化剂上的吸附，一个学生研究项目来研究烯烃氢甲酰化的机制，两个有机化学现象的新实验，表面科学和超真空技术，以及对几个基本化学概念的见解。该仪器包括FTIR，专门为表面化学研究设计的真空气体管道和温度相关研究的温度控制器，为本科生提供了迫切需要的化学研究的一些主要方向和一些最先进仪器的实践经验。该机构正以等额的资金配合国家科学基金的拨款。
