This Chemistry Division award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of South Dakota (USD) for the summers of 2006-2008. Andrew Sykes is the site's program director. Program components include 1) an intensive ten week summer research experience for students, 2) weekly photodynamics/nanoscience learning workshops, 3) social events, and 4) communication activities comprising weekly student seminars, an end-of-summer poster session and attendance at national meetings. Research activity focuses on photodynamics, nanoscience, and the blending of these two areas. Eight USD chemistry faculty and an additional investigator in physics participate as mentors in the program. Recruitment and participation in REU by Native American students is a high priority of this program. All participants will be expected to participate in local (IdeaFest-USD), regional (SD State Capitol, regional ACS) and national conferences (ACS, NCUR) as well as to contribute to peer reviewed science publications. This award is co-funded by the Experimental Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (EPSCoR).

这一化学系奖项支持南达科他大学2006-2008年夏季的本科生研究体验(REU)网站。安德鲁·赛克斯是该网站的项目主管。计划的组成部分包括：1)为学生提供为期10周的密集暑期研究体验；2)每周一次的光动力学/纳米科学学习讲习班；3)社交活动；4)交流活动，包括每周一次的学生研讨会、夏末海报会议和出席国家会议。研究活动的重点是光动力学、纳米科学以及这两个领域的融合。八名美国大学化学教员和一名额外的物理学研究人员作为导师参加了该项目。美洲原住民学生在REU的招募和参与是这一计划的高度优先事项。所有参与者将参加地方性会议(IdeaFest-U.S.)、地区性会议(南达科他州首府、地区性ACS)和全国性会议(ACs、NCUR)，并为同行评议的科学出版物做出贡献。该奖项由激励竞争性研究实验计划(EPSCoR)共同资助。
