This Chemistry Division award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the State University of New York Stony Brook for the summers of 2005-2007. The program director is Andreas Mayr who is assisted by co-PI Robert Kerber. The program will run for 10 weeks, from early June through mid-August of each year. Nine students will have an opportunity to work on well-defined research projects in major areas of chemistry, including biological chemistry, inorganic chemistry, materials chemistry, organic chemistry, organometallic chemistry, physical chemistry, polymer chemistry, and theoretical chemistry. As members of active research groups, the students will interact directly with their research advisors, learn from other group members, and use state-of-the-art facilities. They will acquire skills in design and conduct of experimental work and analysis of scientific data. The summer program concludes with a mini-symposium in which the REU participants, along with other summer research students, will present their results in front of an audience of their peers, faculty, graduate students, and postdoctoral students. The program aims to give the students not only the best training in the laboratory, but also to nurture their awareness of what it means and takes to be a responsible and effective scientist. Thus a weekly workshop accompanies the program. In this workshop the students will receive safety training, discuss ethics in science issues, and receive instruction on how best to present their results to an audience. This program also includes a day-long visit to Brookhaven National Laboratory, where the students will encounter such big science facilities as the National Synchrotron Light Source. The program will target primarily students who would otherwise not have an opportunity to participate in cutting-edge research activities at their home institutions and/or are members of groups that are currently underrepresented in science careers.

该化学部奖支持2005-2007年夏季斯托尼布鲁克纽约州立大学的本科生研究经验（REU）网站。 项目总监是Andreas Mayr，由合作PI Robert Kerber协助。该计划将持续10周，从每年6月初到8月中旬。九名学生将有机会在化学的主要领域，包括生物化学，无机化学，材料化学，有机化学，有机金属化学，物理化学，高分子化学和理论化学明确的研究项目工作。作为活跃的研究小组的成员，学生将直接与他们的研究顾问互动，向其他小组成员学习，并使用最先进的设施。他们将获得设计和进行实验工作和分析科学数据的技能。暑期课程以一个小型研讨会结束，在研讨会上，REU的参与者，沿着其他暑期研究生，将在他们的同龄人，教师，研究生和博士后学生的观众面前展示他们的结果。该计划的目的是让学生不仅在实验室的最佳培训，而且还培养他们的意识，这意味着什么，需要成为一个负责任的和有效的科学家。因此，每周一次的研讨会伴随着该计划。在这个研讨会上，学生们将接受安全培训，讨论科学问题中的道德问题，并接受如何最好地向观众展示他们的结果的指导。该计划还包括对布鲁克海文国家实验室的为期一天的访问，在那里学生将遇到国家同步加速器光源等大型科学设施。该计划将主要针对那些没有机会在其家乡机构参与尖端研究活动的学生和/或目前在科学职业中代表性不足的团体的成员。
