This REU Site activity directly addressed the challenge of increasing the enrollment of women and minorities in engineering graduate study. The key aspects of this program are: 1) the active recruitment of minorities and women by visiting carefully selected "target" schools, and 2) a student oriented research program that contains social as well as instructional aspects designed for successful integration of the participants into an exciting research environment. Ten faculty members have volunteered to support recruitment, instruction, and research supervision. The projects offered span a wide range of research, from plant tissue culture, to thermodynamics held together by common chemical engineering principles. REU participants will be matched with projects prior to selection to maximize mutual interests and capabilities. The participants will enroll in a three credit undergraduate research course during the 1990 summer semester. An instructional program at the beginning of the program has been designed to give the students a quick start on research. To stress the importance of communication, an introductory final and oral presentation, as well as a final written report will be required of each student.

该REU现场活动直接解决了日益增加的挑战， 招收妇女和少数民族攻读工程学研究生。 该方案的主要方面是： 1)积极招募少数民族和妇女， 精心挑选的"目标"学校，以及 2)一个以学生为导向的研究计划，包含社会以及 教学方面的成功整合设计的 参与者进入一个令人兴奋的研究环境。 十名教职员工自愿支持招聘， 指导和研究监督。所提供的项目跨越A 从植物组织培养到热力学的广泛研究 由共同的化学工程原理组成。 REU 参与者将在选择之前与项目进行匹配， 最大限度地提高共同利益和能力。 与会者将 在1990年期间参加一个三学分的本科研究课程 夏季学期 一个教学计划在开始的时候 该计划旨在让学生快速开始学习 research. 为了强调沟通的重要性， 最后的口头报告，以及最后的书面报告将 要求每个学生。
