An REU(Research Experience for Undergraduates) Site will operate for each of the next three summers at Nevis Labs, the high energy physics laboratory of Columbia University. Each summer, we will recruit a group of 10 undergraduate student participants; diversity will be an important element of the recruitment process, and we will actively seek participants from historically under-represented groups. The broad Nevis research program, which seeks to address the most pressing issues of high energy physics, provides the opportunity for the students to gain experience in all aspects of high energy physics experiments, from initial conceptual detector design, hardware development and construction, to simulation software development and data analysis. The activities will also include a series of seminars on various topics in current physics research. At the end of the program, the students will prepare a written scientific report describing the research they performed, and give a short seminar-style presentation to the lab-wide audience.

一个REU（本科生研究经验）站点将在接下来的三个夏季在尼维斯实验室（哥伦比亚大学的高能物理实验室）运行。每年夏天，我们将招募一组10名本科生参加；多样性将是招聘过程中的一个重要因素，我们将积极从历史上代表性不足的群体中寻求参与者。广泛的尼维斯研究计划旨在解决高能物理最紧迫的问题，为学生提供了从初始概念探测器设计、硬件开发和构建到模拟软件开发和数据分析等各个方面获得高能物理实验经验的机会。活动还将包括一系列关于当前物理研究的各种主题的研讨会。在课程结束时，学生们将准备一份书面的科学报告，描述他们所做的研究，并向实验室的观众做一个简短的研讨会式的演讲。
