Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Physics

利哈伊大学物理系REU场地的资金将继续提供。该系拥有强大的国际认可的研究项目，与对本科教育的坚定承诺完全结合；因此，该系非常适合成功的本科研究项目的要求。事实上，在过去的13个夏天里，该部门一直存在这样一个项目。物理系于1989年和1991-93年被美国国家科学基金会指定为REU站点。自1989年以来，我们为代表57个本科院校的100个物理专业提供了高度互动的研究体验。一般来说，这些学生本来没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参观、夏季结束的研讨会以及各种教师/研究生/本科生的社交活动。由大学大力资助的有效集体住宿安排，大大提高了参加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.
