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。 该部门有一个强大的国际公认的研究计划，这是完全与本科教育的坚定承诺相结合;因此，该部门是非常适合一个成功的本科研究计划的要求。 事实上，在过去的13个夏天里，该部一直有这样一个方案。 物理系于1989年和1991-93年被国家科学基金会指定为REU网站。 自1989年以来，我们已经为代表57所本科院校的100名物理专业学生提供了高度互动的研究经验。 一般来说，这些学生在本科时没有机会参加真实的研究。 该计划包括研究，每周研讨会和实验室图尔斯之旅，夏季研讨会结束，以及各种教师/研究生/本科生的社会功能。 一个有效的集体住房安排，由大学大量资助，大大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.
