REU Site in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Minnesota

该奖项资助明尼苏达大学双子城分校在道格拉斯·W·厄尼博士的指导下，在电气和计算机工程领域建立一个为期五年的REU网站。这个为期十周的暑期项目每年将有15名学生参加，他们将在生物医学工程、计算机工程和超大规模集成电路设计、控制系统、电力系统和电子、磁记录技术、光学和光子学、微电子材料、器件设计和制造以及信号处理和通信等广泛的主题上进行密集的研究体验。每名学生将与一名电气和计算机工程系导师配对，并将积极参与导师的研究小组。此外，与会者将参加广泛的互补性教育活动，包括以继承人研究项目为重点的每周系列研讨会、职业研讨会/实地考察以及关于各种主题的专门讲习班。作为REU经验的顶峰，每个学生都将准备一份最终的书面报告，并在院系总结海报会议和全校园暑期研究项目研讨会上发表演讲。

This award provides funding to the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities for the support of a five-year, REU Site in Electrical and Computer Engineering, under the direction of Dr. Douglas W. Ernie. This ten-week summer program will involve fifteen students annually in an intensive research experience on a wide range of topics including biomedical engineering, computer engineering and VLSI design, control systems, power systems and electronics, magnetic recording technology, optics and photonics, microelectronics materials, device design and fabrication, and signal processing and communications. Each student will be paired with an electrical and computer engineering faculty mentor and will be actively involved with the mentor's research group. In addition, the participants will be involved in extensive complementary educational activities, including a weekly seminar series focusing on heir research projects, career seminars/field trips, and specialized workshops on assorted topics. As a capstone to their REU experience, each student will prepare a final written report and give a presentation at a concluding departmental poster session and an all-campus summer research program symposium.
