This Chemistry Division award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Clemson University for the summers of 2005-2007. The program director is Luis Echegoyen who is assisted by co-PI Lourdes Echegoyen. Nine students, recruited from other institutions, will participate in a ten-week program. Students are recruited nationwide with emphasis on the ten-state region surrounding Clemson where a large number of institutions are HBCUs. In addition, special recruiting efforts target Puerto Rican institutions with a new initiative to recruit from 2-year technical colleges in the vicinity of Clemson. Students will participate in group activities aimed at enriching their research experience and at fostering student-student and faculty-student interactions. These activities include a preliminary research presentation, instrumentation workshops, informational lunch seminars and a visit to the R & D facilities at a local industry. The research experience culminates in a final symposium at which students present the results of their work in a poster format. Ultimately, the program is intended to encourage and successfully prepare participants to continue studies at the graduate level and to lead them to a successful scientific and teaching career.

该化学部门奖项支持克莱姆森大学 2005-2007 年夏季的本科生研究体验 (REU) 网站。 项目总监是 Luis Echegoyen，并由联合 PI Lourdes Echegoyen 协助。 从其他机构招募的九名学生将参加为期十周的课程。 学生在全国范围内招生，重点是克莱姆森周边的十个州地区，那里有大量的 HBCU 院校。此外，针对波多黎各机构的特别招聘工作采取了一项新举措，从克莱姆森附近的两年制技术学院进行招聘。学生将参加旨在丰富他们的研究经验并促进学生与学生以及教师与学生互动的小组活动。这些活动包括初步研究报告、仪器研讨会、信息午餐研讨会以及参观当地行业的研发设施。研究经验在最终研讨会上达到高潮，学生在会上以海报的形式展示他们的工作成果。最终，该计划旨在鼓励并成功帮助参与者做好继续研究生阶段学习的准备，并引导他们走向成功的科学和教学生涯。
