This Division of Chemistry award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of North Texas (UNT) for the summers of 2007-2009. Angela Wilson and Thomas Cundari serve as directors for the program. Eight students will participate in the ten-week summer program. Students will be recruited nationally with a special focus on the ethnically diverse region of Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas, and Oklahoma. The program will provide a strong exposure to research fundamentals to students who may not otherwise have such opportunities at their home institutions. Research projects will span organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, materials, and biological chemistry with special emphasis on computational chemistry and the interface between theory and experiment. UNT is home to one of the largest and most diverse computational chemistry groups in the country and provides an ideal location for such an emphasis. The REU experience will introduce students to a range of career, research, community service, and leadership opportunities in chemistry, and will include interactions with chemical leaders from major chemical companies and other organizations. An external advisory board will assist and advise this REU program.

该化学部奖支持北德克萨斯大学（UNT） 2007-2009年夏季本科生研究经验（REU）站点。安吉拉·威尔逊和托马斯·昆达里担任该项目的导演。8名学生将参加为期10周的暑期项目。学生将在全国范围内招募，特别关注阿肯色州，路易斯安那州，德克萨斯州和俄克拉荷马州的种族多元化地区。该项目将为那些在本国机构可能没有这样机会的学生提供一个强有力的研究基础。研究项目将跨越有机、无机、物理、分析、材料和生物化学，特别强调计算化学和理论与实验之间的接口。UNT是国内最大和最多样化的计算化学小组之一，并为这种强调提供了理想的位置。REU的经历将向学生介绍化学领域的一系列职业、研究、社区服务和领导机会，并将包括与主要化学公司和其他组织的化学领导者的互动。一个外部顾问委员会将协助并建议这个REU项目。
