*** Smith The Research Experiences for Undergraduates site at the Rice Quantum Institute of Rice University will be continued. The main objective of the program is to provide undergraduate students with an opportunity to observe and participate in research in a highly-interdisciplinary university research environment with strong faculty support. The program has, and will continue to focus on active participation in research, but also strives to show the participants how the research funding process works, give them insight into applications of basic research, and provide them with an understanding of the fundamental motivations for research activity. Each undergraduate becomes affiliated with one of the 25 research groups at the Quantum Institute, and works on an independent project that he/she can bring to completion in the allotted ten-week time frame. In addition to research activities, a special seminar series for the participants is organized in which invited speakers deal with topics ranging from "hot" topics in research, commercial applications of basic research, entrepreneurship, graduate schools, opportunities for employment, and other topics. ***

*** Smith莱斯大学莱斯量子研究所本科生研究经验网站将继续。该计划的主要目标是为本科生提供一个在高度跨学科的大学研究环境中观察和参与研究的机会，并提供强大的师资支持。该计划已经并将继续关注积极参与研究，但也努力向参与者展示研究资助过程是如何运作的，让他们了解基础研究的应用，并为他们提供对研究活动基本动机的理解。每个本科生都要加入量子研究所25个研究小组中的一个，并从事一个独立的项目，他/她可以在分配的10周时间内完成。除了研究活动外，还为与会者组织了一个特别的系列讨论会，邀请发言者讨论研究中的“热门”问题、基础研究的商业应用、企业精神、研究生院、就业机会和其他问题。＊＊＊
