This award continues a well-established and successful summer program where participants work with faculty members of the Mineral Physics Institute (MPI) on projects that probe the physical and chemical properties of materials at high pressures. The goal of the program is to recruit students from the physical sciences with the hope they will be stimulated to the point of pursuing a research career in the Earth Sciences. Recruitment of underrepresented minorities and women is emphasized. Students in this program will work closely with members of the MPI, students will pursue their own projects and discuss their progress during weekly seminar sessions. During the program, students will have the opportunity to visit other laboratories and institutions affiliated with the MPI.

该奖项延续了一个成熟而成功的暑期项目，参与者与矿物物理研究所（MPI）的教职员工合作，研究高压下材料的物理和化学性质。该计划的目标是从物理科学领域招收学生，希望他们能够被激励到追求地球科学研究事业的地步。强调征聘代表性不足的少数民族和妇女。在这个程序的学生将与MPI的成员密切合作，学生将追求自己的项目，并在每周研讨会上讨论他们的进展。在该计划期间，学生将有机会参观与MPI附属的其他实验室和机构。
