Research Experience for Undergraduates

威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校细菌系和研究生院将为微生物学、分子生物学和相关领域的本科生提供暑期研究项目的机会。将加倍努力招收合格的妇女、少数民族或残疾学生，或在其所在机构进行实验室研究的机会有限的学生。该计划的主要目标是吸引和激励有动力的学生从事研究事业，同时为他们提供实践经验。细菌学系拥有一支国际公认的研究团队，致力于本科和研究生教育，他们将指导个人实验室研究项目。学生将作为一个充满活力的研究团队的一部分，研究细胞或分子生物学的基本问题。学生将熟悉微生物学，生物化学，遗传学和分子生物学的研究技术，使用现代化的设备和设施的细菌学系。学生将参加专业研讨会，并对自己的研究成果进行书面和口头报告。该系在为本科生提供研究机会方面有着良好的记录，并自1988年以来成功地为学生管理了夏季REU项目。该系每年将资助10名学生进行为期9周的深入研究。

The Department of Bacteriology and the Graduate School of the University of Wisconsin-Madison will provide opportunities for summer research projects for undergraduate students in microbiology, molecular biology, and related fields. Extra effort will be made to recruit qualified students that are women, minority or disabled, or who otherwise have limited opportunities to conduct laboratory research at their home institution. The main goal of the program is to attract and stimulate motivated students to pursue careers in research, while providing them with hands-on experience. The Department of Bacteriology has an internationally recognized research faculty, committed to both undergraduate and graduate education, who will direct individual laboratory research projects. Students will work as part of a dynamic research team investigating a basic problem in cellular or molecular biology. Students will become familiar with the research techniques of microbiology, biochemistry, genetics and molecular biology using modern equipment and facilities in the Department of Bacteriology. Students will attend professional seminars and make written and oral presentations of their own research findings. The Department has an established record of providing research opportunities for undergraduate students and has successfully administered summer REU Programs for students since 1988. The Department will fund ten students per year for a nine-week intensive research experience.
