This award will maintain the Triangle Universities Nuclear Laboratory (TUNL) as a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site. A diverse research program in low-energy nuclear physics is conducted at TUNL by researchers from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, North Carolina State University, and Duke University where the laboratory is located. This REU summer program provides undergraduate students with a realistic and active research experience through the completion of a self-contained 10-week project. The students collaborate with faculty, postdoctoral and pre-doctoral research staff from the three major research institutions, and are exposed to the graduate programs at these institutions. Through active research, seminars, lab tours, and discussion groups, the students are exposed to various aspects of nuclear physics research and its impact on other areas of research. The student acceptance process mainly targetsstudents from small colleges and universities across the country who have limited opportunities to be involved in active research programs.

该奖项将维持三角大学核实验室（TUNL）作为本科生研究体验（REU）场所。来自北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校、北卡罗来纳州立大学和实验室所在杜克大学的研究人员在 TUNL 开展了低能核物理方面的多样化研究项目。 REU 暑期项目通过完成为期 10 周的独立项目，为本科生提供现实且积极的研究体验。学生与来自三大研究机构的教师、博士后和博士前研究人员合作，并接触这些机构的研究生课程。通过积极的研究、研讨会、实验室参观和讨论小组，学生们可以接触到核物理研究的各个方面及其对其他研究领域的影响。学生录取过程主要针对来自全国各地小型学院和大学的学生，他们参与活跃研究项目的机会有限。
