The REU site in Spectroscopy at Coe College, sponsored jointly by the Physics and Chemistry departments, continues a tradition of strong interaction with undergraduate students pursuing high-level, publishable research. REU students carry out research in glass science, optics, environmental chemistry, organic synthesis, acoustics, and atmospheric chemistry, all under the common focus of spectroscopy. They are exposed to and trained in a variety of techniques, including FTIR, Raman, NMR, time of flight mass spectrometry, absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies, x-ray fluorescence, thermal calorimetry. Projects are designed to be suitable for undergraduates, but are also challenging and leading to results of interest to external researchers. Additional educational activities provide participating students with a well-rounded exposure to different spectroscopic techniques. The site is very friendly and student centered, with students working directly with professors and alongside more senior research students. The site is especially interested in students from rural backgrounds who attend small colleges offering little or no opportunities for research.This site is co-funded by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.

科学院光谱学的REU网站由物理和化学系联合赞助，继续与追求高水平，可持续研究的本科生进行强有力的互动的传统。 REU学生在玻璃科学，光学，环境化学，有机合成，声学和大气化学方面进行研究，所有这些都是光谱学的共同重点。他们接受各种技术的培训，包括FTIR、拉曼、NMR、飞行时间质谱、吸收和荧光光谱、X射线荧光、热量测定。项目的设计适合本科生，但也具有挑战性，并导致外部研究人员感兴趣的结果。 额外的教育活动为参与的学生提供了对不同光谱技术的全面接触。该网站非常友好，以学生为中心，学生直接与教授以及更高年级的研究生一起工作。 该网站对来自农村背景的学生特别感兴趣，这些学生就读于很少或根本没有研究机会的小型大学。该网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作资助。
