This award from the Division of Chemistry supports the renewal of a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Harvey Mudd College (HMC). Adam Johnson is the site's Program Director. Eight REU students will be supported for a ten-week research program with additional students being supported by institutional funds and faculty research grants. The major focus is on individual research in a range of chemical disciplines in close collaboration with HMC faculty mentors. Research activities will be supplemented by workshops in ethics, chemical safety, and information retrieval, and students will present their work in at least two public forums during the program. Many students also will present their research results at the spring meeting of the American Chemical Society. This site will continue to recruit women and also will encourage participation of underrepresented students from local institutions (two- and four-year institutions located in Los Angeles, Orange and Riverside counties) with limited summer research opportunities. The evaluation and assessment of the research experience at HMC will be administered by the HMC Offices of Assessment and of the Dean of Faculty. An anonymous program evaluation form will provide feedback on students' research experiences. HMC also participates in a long-term study on the impact of research on science undergraduates, carried out in collaboration with Hope, Grinnell and Wellesley Colleges.

该奖项由化学系颁发，用于支持哈维穆德学院 (HMC) 本科生研究体验 (REU) 网站的更新。 Adam Johnson 是该网站的项目总监。 八名 REU 学生将获得为期十周的研究项目的支持，其他学生将获得机构资金和教师研究补助金的支持。 主要重点是与 HMC 教师导师密切合作，进行一系列化学学科的个人研究。研究活动将辅以道德、化学品安全和信息检索研讨会，学生将在项目期间至少在两个公共论坛上展示他们的作品。 许多学生还将在美国化学会春季会议上展示他们的研究成果。 该网站将继续招募女性，并将鼓励来自当地机构（位于洛杉矶、奥兰治和河滨县的两年制和四年制机构）的代表性不足的学生参与，夏季研究机会有限。 HMC 研究经验的评估和评估将由 HMC 评估办公室和学院院长负责管理。 匿名项目评估表将提供有关学生研究经历的反馈。 HMC 还参与了一项与霍普学院、格林内尔学院和韦尔斯利学院合作开展的一项关于研究对理科本科生影响的长期研究。
