Interdisciplinary Team Research in Civil Engineering Materials

摘要9513102西北大学研究生院网站的目标是吸引学生从事对土木工程感兴趣的材料的研究工作，培训学生使用跨学科研究团队，并为本科生实施适用于其他研究领域的跨学科团队研究计划提供模式和基准数据，如聚合物、电子材料、环境、生物科学等。计划还将招收所有工程学科以及数学、化学和物理专业的学生。学生活动将包括参加跨学科研究的强化课程，进行个人研究，参加跨学科研究小组会议，定期与教师顾问互动，撰写出版物质量研究论文，并做口头报告。

ABSTRACT 9513102 Dowding The objective of this REU Site at Northwestern University is to attract students to research careers on materials of interest to civil engineering, to train students in the use of interdisciplinary research teams, and to provide a model for and produce baseline data for implementation of interdisciplinary team research programs for undergraduates that are applicable for other fields of study, i.e., polymers, electronic materials, environmental, biological sciences, etc. Plans are to recruit students from all engineering disciplines and mathematics, chemistry and physics majors also. Student activities will include attending an intensive course of study in interdisciplinary research, conducting individual research, participating in interdisciplinary research group meetings, regularly interacting with a faculty advisor, writing a publication quality research paper and giving an oral report.
