REU Site: Modern Optics and Optical Materials

阿肯色州的大学继续经营本科生（REU）网站的研究经验。 每年在全国范围内招募10名本科生，进行为期10周的夏季研究体验，招募重点是该地区历史上黑人学院和大学的本科生。 REU网站的主题是现代光学和光学材料。 本科生参与研究项目，解决玻璃，半导体和其他光学和激光材料的合成，表征和建模。除了参加个人研究项目外，REU学生还参加实验室图尔斯和专业发展研讨会。这个REU网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作支持。

The University of Arkansas continues operating a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site. Ten undergraduate students are recruited nationwide every year for a ten-week summer research experience, with a recruitment focus on undergraduates from Historically Black Colleges and Universities in the region. The theme of the REU Site is Modern Optics and Optical Materials. Undergraduate students participate in research projects addressing synthesis, characterization and modeling of glasses, semiconductors, and other optical and laser materials. In addition to participating in individual research projects, REU students attend lab tours and professional development seminars.This REU Site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.
