REU: Research Experience for Undergraduates in Bio-inspired Chemistry at Marshall University

PI：布什机构：马歇尔大学化学部门奖支持马歇尔大学2003-2005年夏季本科生研究经验（REU）站点。赛斯·布什（Seth Bush）是该网站的项目主管。来自马歇尔大学和西弗吉尼亚州立学院化学系的11名教师将在每年夏天担任8名学生的学生导师，为期10周。学生将从阿巴拉契亚地区和更大的全国范围内招募，人数大致相等。研究项目提供在化学领域具有生化方向。参与者将发展广泛的实用科学实验室技能，如合成，仪器分析和计算。学生将准备一份提案，一份口头进度报告和最后的海报会议。研究经验将通过离职访谈和参与者的长期跟踪来评估。

PI: Bush Institution: Marshall UniversityThe Chemistry Division award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Marshall University for the summers of 2003-2005. Seth Bush is the site's program director. Eleven faculty from the chemistry departments at Marshall University and West Virginia State College will serve as student mentors to 8 students each summer for ten weeks. Students will be recruited from the Appalachian geographic area and from a larger national pool in roughly equal numbers. Research projects are offered in the area of chemistry having a biochemical orientation. Participants will develop a broad range of practical scientific laboratory skills such as synthesis, instrumental analysis and computation. Students will prepare a proposal, an oral progress report and a final poster session. The research experience will be evaluated by exit interviews and long term tracking of participants.
