Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Physics

将继续为利哈伊大学物理系内的REU网站提供资金。该系拥有强大的国际公认的研究计划，这与对本科教育的坚定承诺完全结合在一起；因此，该系非常适合成功的本科生研究计划的要求。事实上，在过去的13个夏天里，新闻部一直存在这样的方案。物理系在1989年和1991-93年被国家科学基金会指定为REU地点。自以来，我们已经为代表57所本科院校的百名物理专业学生提供了高度互动的研究体验。一般来说，这些学生本来不会有机会作为本科生参与真正的研究。该计划包括研究、每周研讨会和实验室之旅、暑期结束研讨会，以及各种教职员工/研究生/本科生的社交活动。在大学的大力资助下，一项有效的集体住房安排极大地提高了参与者的学术和社会经验。

Funding for the REU site within the Physics Department at Lehigh University will be continued. The Department has a strong internationally recognized research program which is fully integrated with a strong commitment to undergraduate education; hence the department is exceptionally well suited to the demands of a successful undergraduate research program. Such a program has in fact existed in the Department for the past 13 summers. The Physics Department was designated an REU site by the National Science Foundation in 1989 and from 1991-93. Since 1989, we have provided highly interactive research experiences for 100 physics majors representing 57 undergraduate institutions. Generally, these are students who would not otherwise have had the opportunity as undergraduates to participate in real research. This program includes research, weekly seminars and lab tours, an end-of-the-summer symposium, and various faculty/graduate student/undergraduate student social functions. An effective group housing arrangement, subsidized heavily by the University, has greatly enhanced both the academic and social experiences of the participants.
