9820336SeraphinThe University of Arizona offers a summer research experience for undergraduate students through a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site. This REU site utilizes electron microscopy and other microanalytical tools as common focus of several research projects that include studies of the structure of ceramic films, sol-gels for nuclear waste encapsulation, hydrogels for artificial joints and defects in silicon-on-insulator structures. Eight undergraduate students are recruited every year for a ten-week summer research experience, with a recruitment focus on undergraduates from underrepresented groups. In addition to participating in individual research projects, REU students take a one-week course on electron microscopy and microanalysis and attend weekly research group meetings.This REU site also emphasizes the recruitment of undergraduate students early in their college years, at the freshman and sophomore level, thus offering them a research experience before career plans are already set.

9820336Seraphin亚利桑那大学通过本科生研究经验（REU）网站为本科生提供暑期研究经验。 该REU站点利用电子显微镜和其他微量分析工具作为多个研究项目的共同焦点，其中包括陶瓷薄膜结构、核废料封装用溶胶凝胶、人工关节水凝胶和绝缘体上硅结构缺陷的研究。 每年招收八名本科生进行为期十周的夏季研究体验，招聘重点是来自代表性不足群体的本科生。 除了参加个人研究项目外，REU学生还参加为期一周的电子显微镜和微量分析课程，并参加每周的研究小组会议。REU网站还强调在大学早期招募本科生，在大一和大二的水平，从而在职业规划之前为他们提供研究经验。
