NSF's chemistry (CHE) and materials science research (DMR) divisions will jointly fund the University of Washington's Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site for the summers of 2005-2007. The program director is Philip Reid who is assisted by Co-PI Sara Selfe. This REU site will provide research experiences at the University of Washington's Materials and Devices for Information Technology Research (MDITR) Center. The recruiting focus is for Gateway students, that is, lower-level undergraduates (entering sophomore and juniors) from community colleges and 4-year institutions that lack research facilities. Recruitment will emphasize women and underrepresented minorities. Seventeen faculty members from six UW departments have agreed to host two or more students in their labs for at least one of the three years of the proposed project. For each 10-week summer program, the 9-student cohort will engage in authentic hands-on research projects directly related to MDITR research. MDITR PIs will present technical seminars to provide students the opportunity to place their research into context related to the broad interdisciplinary field of photonics; and students will engage in workshops related to ethics, communicating science, and careers in order to learn about the community and culture of science and engineering in general. Furthermore, students will be engaged in research within the field of Information Technology, a critically important technology, impacting economic and social (education, health care, defense, entertainment, transportation, etc.) well-being both globally and nationally.

美国国家科学基金会的化学（CHE）和材料科学研究（DMR）部门将共同资助华盛顿大学的本科生研究经验（REU）网站2005-2007年夏天。 该计划的主任是菲利普里德谁是协助共同PI萨拉Selfe。这个REU网站将提供华盛顿大学信息技术研究（MDITR）中心材料和设备的研究经验。招生重点是网关学生，即低水平的本科生（进入大二和大三）从社区学院和4年制机构，缺乏研究设施。招聘工作将侧重于妇女和代表性不足的少数民族。来自华盛顿大学六个系的17名教员已经同意在拟议项目的三年中至少有一年在他们的实验室接待两名或更多的学生。对于每个为期10周的暑期课程，9名学生将参与与MDITR研究直接相关的真实实践研究项目。MDITR PI将举办技术研讨会，为学生提供机会，将他们的研究置于与光子学广泛的跨学科领域相关的背景下;学生将参加与道德，传播科学和职业有关的研讨会，以了解科学和工程的社区和文化。此外，学生将从事信息技术领域的研究，这是一项至关重要的技术，影响经济和社会（教育，医疗保健，国防，娱乐，交通等）。全球和国内的福祉。
