Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Chemistry at the University of California

这个奖项，由化学司，支持丽贝卡Braslau博士和化学系的其他成员在加州圣克鲁斯大学继续本科生（REU）在化学网站的研究经验。在2000 - 2002年期间，36名本科生将花十个星期，每个人在化学教师的监督和指导下进行原创性研究，每年夏天。该计划将向学生参与者介绍除了实验室研究之外图书馆的使用，并将在研究结果的书面和口头交流方面对他们进行培训。该计划将与该大学的访问计划相结合，该计划将18名当地代表性不足的少数民族大学生带到校园进行夏季研究体验。两个项目的参与者将参加关于研究生院选择和申请的联合晚间研究研讨会和讲习班。 该计划的长期影响将为参与者提供对科学研究的现实理解，这对他们的研究生职业成功至关重要。

This award, by the Chemistry Division, supports Dr. Rebecca Braslau and other members of the Department of Chemistry at the University of California Santa Cruz in continuing a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site in chemistry. For the period 2000 - 2002, 36 undergraduate students will spend ten weeks each performing original research under the supervision and guidance of Chemistry faculty each summer. The program will introduce student participants to the use of the library in addition to laboratory research and will train them in both written and oral communication of research results. The program will be integrated with the University's ACCESS program which brings 18 local underrepresented minority college students to campus for a summer research experience. Participants in the two programs will attend joint evening research seminars and workshops on graduate school selection and application. The long range impact of the program will be to provide the participants with a realistic understanding of scientific research that will be crucial to their post graduate professional success.
