9605122 Stahly A proven undergraduate summer research program that has been in operation for several years will be continued and expanded. During the summers of 1997 through 1999, respectively, 9, 10, and 10 undergraduates will be supported. As in the past years, recruitment and selection will emphasize women, minorities, and students from non-Ph.D.-granting institutions, where opportunities for research are limited. The students selected will be integrated into the research of participating faculty members and will be expected to perform like beginning graduate students. The hands-on experience in the laboratory will be supplemented by informal faculty-student discussions and weekly seminars. The program will culminate with oral and written presentations of the students' research. Weekly pizza lunches, two picnics, and a banquet will facilitate social and scientific interaction. Based on past experience, the program is expected to stimulate students to pursue careers in science.

9605122一个已经运行了几年的经过验证的本科生暑期研究项目将继续并扩大。在1997年至1999年的夏季，将分别资助9名、10名和10名本科生。与过去几年一样，招聘和选拔将侧重于妇女、少数民族和来自非授予博士学位的机构的学生，这些机构的研究机会有限。被选中的学生将被整合到参与研究的教职员工的研究中，并将被期望表现得像初学研究生一样。在实验室的实践经验将得到非正式的师生讨论和每周研讨会的补充。该计划将以口头和书面形式介绍学生的研究成果。每周的披萨午餐、两次野餐和一次宴会将促进社会和科学互动。根据过去的经验，该计划有望刺激学生在科学领域追求职业生涯。
