The ten week summer REU program at Clemson University is intended to provide a group of eight outstanding students with an opportunity to participate in highly individualized bioengineering research activities. Although the program is geared to undergraduate engineering students who may consider graduate training in bioengineering, exceptional students from other pertinent physical and biological science disciplines will be encouraged to enroll in the program, as future bioengineers. The program is designed to provide the students with a step-wise scenario of a mini-research project. This will entail: a) having basic topical instructions pertinent to bioengineering; b) hands- on exercise in literature search and outlining of plans for a research project; c) exposure to general and specific laboratory techniques used in bioengineering research; d) observing and taking part in the planned research activities, recognizing important aspects of being a team member among research experimentalists, and making on the spot decisions in the laboratory environment; and e) recording, analyzing, presenting technical data, as well as making technical judgements on results with supported conclusions. Program attributes and associated impact include encouraging outstanding engineering and science undergraduate students to pursue graduate training in bioengineering and preparing undergraduate students who are to seek the job market with valuable research experience.

克莱姆森大学为期十周的暑期REU项目旨在为八名优秀学生提供参加高度个性化的生物工程研究活动的机会。虽然该计划是面向可能考虑生物工程研究生培训的工程本科学生，但其他相关物理和生物科学学科的优秀学生将被鼓励参加该计划，成为未来的生物工程师。该计划旨在为学生提供一个小型研究项目的逐步方案。这将需要：a)具有与生物工程相关的基本专题说明；B)在文献检索和概述研究项目计划方面的实践练习；C)接触生物工程研究中使用的一般和特定实验室技术；D)观察和参与计划的研究活动，认识到作为研究实验人员团队成员的重要方面，并在实验室环境中做出现场决策；e)记录、分析、呈现技术数据，并对结果进行技术判断，支持结论。项目属性和相关影响包括鼓励优秀的工程和科学本科生攻读生物工程研究生培训，并为本科生提供有价值的研究经验以寻求就业市场做好准备。
