REU Site: Research on Chemical and Radiation Sensors at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke

化学部奖项资助北卡罗来纳大学彭布罗克分校 2004 年至 2006 年夏季的本科生研究体验 (REU) 网站。 物理部共同资助该网站。 Paul A. Flowers 是网站总监。 该网站每年夏天将为 6 名学生提供为期 10 周的研究体验。 这些研究项目的特点是与开发用于原位测量的化学和辐射传感器相关的基础研究。将招募同等数量的北卡罗来纳大学彭布罗克分校和社区学院的学生与化学或物理教师导师结对工作。 招生将针对彭布罗克学生和拥有多元化学生群体的地区社区学院。 彭布罗克历史上是美洲原住民的机构。 该项目将于每年夏天以学生研究研讨会结束。 暑期研究结束后，学生研究人员将参加涉及科学文献和研究交流的在线阅读和作业课程。 评估数据将从调查、学生演示评估、在线课程和项目后跟踪中汇总。

The Chemistry Division award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of North Carolina, Pembroke, for the summers of 2004-2006. The Physics Division cofunds this site. Paul A. Flowers is the site director. This site will provide research experiences for 6 students for 10 weeks each summer. The research projects feature fundamental studies relevant to the development of chemical and radiation sensors for in situ measurements. Equal numbers of UNC Pembroke and community college students will be recruited to work in pairs with a chemistry or physics faculty mentor. Recruitment will target the Pembroke students and regional community colleges with diverse student populations. Pembroke is a historically Native American institution. The program will conclude each summer with a student research symposium. Following their summer research, student researchers will participate in an on-line course of readings and assignments involving the scientific literature and communication of research. Assessment data will be compiled from surveys, evaluations of student presentations, the on-line course, and post-program tracking.
