Abstract for Raman, EEC-0453363: This REU award for a Site on Sensors and Metrology for the Manufacturing Enterprise supports 8 engineering and science students each year for three years in a 10-week summer research experience at the University of Oklahoma in Norman. Intellectual Merit: The objective of this program is to formally introduce and involve undergraduate students to research in metrology and sensors. The participants conduct research on topics such as coordinate tolerance metrology, machining tribology, roughness metrology and gain experience in emerging areas such as Scanning Probe Microscopy, Laser-Doppler Velocimetry, sensor networks, and optical interferometry. Further, each participant learns to conduct literature surveys, formulate hypotheses, design experiments to collect data, analyze and interpret the data and communicate their work through written and oral presentation. These experiences are facilitated by the PI and a team of research mentors. Students undertake both individual projects as well as team research. Standard teaming exercises are conducted, and students learn to synthesize and analyze engineering problems while bringing diverse individual expertise to teams. Although research is introduced by the mentors, the student's own experiences enhance their understanding of problems. Ethics training is incorporated in research situations in addition to structured workshops. Faculty presentations of research, workshops, lab and industry tours, progress reports, and social activities provide a broad experience.Broader Impacts: Metrology is essential to the maintenance of product quality, process improvement, and evolution of newer manufacturing processes and equipment. By exposing more students to this important area, the program seeks to improve the nation's competitiveness in manufacturing. Sensing/metrology for nanosciences, biomanufacturing, and MEMS are studied under this umbrella, promoting cutting-edge to over-the-horizon research. This REU site attempts to motivate students to participate in research leading to graduate and doctoral work. Coordination with RET and GK-12 opportunities are pursued as appropriate. Recruitment: Students are recruited nationally through advertisement and publicity. Specially targeted will be students who come from non-research institutions where such opportunities may not be available. The recruitment of under-represented minorities in engineering such as women, Native-, Hispanic- and African-Americans is a major focus for this project. Evaluation: A formative evaluation plan is designed to obtain feedback and to monitor the progress of the students after they conclude their formal term. This site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.

Raman摘要，EEC-0453363：该REU颁奖典礼是在俄克拉荷马大学诺曼的俄克拉荷马大学的10周夏季研究经验中，每年为制造业企业的传感器和计量学网站支持8个工程和科学专业的学生。 知识分子的优点：该计划的目的是正式介绍并让本科生参与计量学和传感器的研究。参与者对诸如坐标耐受度计量学，加工摩擦学，粗糙度计量学和增益经验等主题进行研究，例如扫描探针显微镜，激光多普勒速度法，传感器网络和光学干涉仪。 此外，每个参与者都学会进行文学调查，制定假设，设计实验以收集数据，分析和解释数据并通过书面和口头表现来传达其工作。 PI和研究导师团队为这些经验提供了促进。 学生从事两个单独的项目和团队研究。 进行了标准的团队练习，学生学习综合和分析工程问题，同时将各种个人专业知识带给团队。 尽管导师介绍了研究，但学生的经历增强了他们对问题的理解。 道德培训除了结构化研讨会外，还将伦理培训纳入研究情况。 研究，研讨会，实验室和行业之旅，进度报告和社交活动的教师演讲提供了广泛的经验。Boader的影响：计量学对于维持产品质量，过程改进以及更新的制造过程和设备的发展至关重要。通过使更多的学生进入这一重要领域，该计划旨在提高国家制造业的竞争力。 在此保护伞下研究了用于纳米科学，生物制造和MEMS的传感/计量学，从而促进了胜利研究的尖端。这个REU网站试图激励学生参加研究研究和博士学位的研究。 与RET和GK-12的协调机会适当地寻求。 招聘：通过广告和宣传在全国范围内招募学生。 特别有针对性的是来自非研究机构的学生，这些机构可能无法提供此类机会。在妇女，本地人，西班牙裔和非裔美国人等工程领域，代表性不足的少数群体的招募是该项目的主要重点。评估：形成性评估计划旨在获得反馈并在学生结束正式任期后监视进度。该站点由国防部与NSF REU计划合作支持。
