Research Experience for Undergraduate Students in Sensor Technologies

这项工作的目标是产生科学知识，并将这些知识应用于传感器的开发。REU网站是宾夕法尼亚大学传感器技术中心夏季传感器技术本科生奖学金（SUNFEST）计划的一部分。该中心为教师和学生提供协作、交流思想、共同监督学生和共享资源的基础设施。学生由教师委员会根据他们的学术潜力、对从事研究事业的兴趣、对研究生学习的态度、导师的建议、在代表性不足的群体中的成员资格以及在本国机构的研究机会来选择。特别强调的是这些SUNFEST研究员与该中心相关的研究生和教职员工之间更广泛的互动和交流。向学生推荐的项目是根据其教育价值、科学价值和夏季结束后继续参与的前景来选择的。

The goal of this effort is to generate scientific knowledge and to apply this knowledge to sensor development. The REU Site is part of the Summer Undergraduate Fellowship in Sensor Technologies (SUNFEST) program of the University of Pennsylvania's Center for Sensor Technologies. The Center provides the infrastructure for faculty and students to collaborate, exchange ideas, co-supervise students, and share resources. Students are selected by a faculty committee based on their academic potential, interest in pursuing a research career, attitude towards graduate studies, advisors' recommendations, membership in underrepresented groups, and research opportunities in the home institution. Special emphasis is placed on the broader interaction and communication of these SUNFEST fellows with the graduate students and faculty members associated with the Center. The projects suggested to the students are chosen for their educational value, scientific merit, and the prospects for continued involvement after the summer.
