Summer Program in Solid State Chemistry for Undergraduate Students and College Faculty

本暑期固态化学课程将为本科生和学院教师提供一个跨学科的论坛，让他们了解固态化学领域的最新进展，包括材料合成、开发和应用的影响，以及在选定的固态化学领域的直接研究经验。将固态化学的概念和技术与基于分子概念的完整的化学课程相结合将继续是固态化学暑期课程的目标。被选中的学生和教师将有机会与来自不同大学和行业的国际知名固态化学家进行互动，包括辅导课、实地考察和暑期研究。他们将在暑假期间学习固态化学，并在美国的大学和工业实验室进行个人项目的研究。这些努力的结果将由每位参与者在最后的研讨会上发表。固态化学的范围和重要性日益得到学生、大学教师和工业科学家的认可，这不仅是因为发现了与高科技相关的新型材料，而且还因为现代技术使人们对固体的各种特性有了更深入的基本理解。固态化学的研究人员活跃在多学科领域，包括材料科学与工程、化学、化学工程、物理学和矿物学/地质学。＊＊＊

9803995 Thompson This summer program in solid state chemistry for undergraduate students and college faculty will provide an interdisciplinary forum for learning about recent advances in the area of solid- state chemistry which will include the impact of materials synthesis, development and application, and direct research experience in selected solid-state chemical areas. Integrating the concepts and techniques of solid-state chemistry with the well established and full curriculum of chemistry based upon molecular concepts will continue to be a goal of the solid-state chemistry summer program. Selected students and teachers will be offered opportunities to interact with internationally known solid state chemists from various universities and industries through a program of tutorials, site-visits, and summer research. They will devote the summer period to tutorials on solid state chemistry, and research on individual projects will be conducted by the participants in university and industrial laboratories across the U.S. The results of these efforts will be presented by each participant in a final symposium. %%% The scope and importance of solid-state chemistry is increasingly recognized among students, university faculty and industrial scientists not only because of the discovery of new classes of materials of high technological relevance, but also because of a deeper fundamental understanding of the diverse properties of solids that is made possible by the availability modern techniques. Contributions to solid-state chemistry are now made by researchers active in multidisciplinary areas of research that include materials science and engineering, chemistry, chemical engineering, physics, and mineralogy/geology. ***
