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

该奖项为明尼苏达大学双城分校提供资金，用于支持一个为期五年的电气和计算机工程REU站点，由Douglas W. Ernie博士指导。这个为期十周的暑期课程每年将有15名学生参与广泛的主题的深入研究经验，包括生物医学工程，计算机工程和VLSI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。每个学生将与电气和计算机工程学院的导师配对，并将积极参与导师的研究小组。此外，参与者将参与广泛的补充教育活动，包括每周的系列研讨会，重点是他们的研究项目，职业研讨会/实地考察，以及各种主题的专门讲习班。作为他们在REU经历的顶点，每个学生都要准备一份最终的书面报告，并在总结部门海报会议和全校夏季研究计划研讨会上发表演讲。

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.
