EEC-0754741Jan Van der SpiegelThis three year REU Site program will provide an opportunity for undergraduate students to participate in hands-on research in the area of sensor technologies. The research project topics include sensor phenomena and materials, nano and micro-sensor technology, bio-inspired sensors, sensor systems for robotics and bio-medical applications. In addition to the research projects, students will be engaged in a series of enrichment activities that will help them become more confident as researchers, including workshops on doing research, technical writing, giving effective presentations, preparing for and applying to graduate school, safety, and ethics in engineering and science. Social activities will also be an integral part of the students' experience with the goal of building friendships and collegiality between the students and faculty. The students will contribute to academically based discovery that may lead to better devices for medical, robotics, communications and surveillance applications. Although the main emphasis of the program is to promote discovery through research, another important aspect is the educational and learning component. Students will learn new analytical techniques and sensor principles; become familiar with state-of-the-art equipment, micro and nano-fabrication technologies, and software tools. Recruitment efforts will be targeted to participants from underrepresented groups and smaller colleges with no or limited research opportunities with the aim to increase the pool of engineering graduate students."This site is co-funded by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program."

EEC-0754741 Jan货车der Spiegel这个为期三年的REU Site计划将为本科生提供一个参与传感器技术领域动手研究的机会。 研究项目主题包括传感器现象和材料，纳米和微米传感器技术，生物启发传感器，机器人和生物医学应用的传感器系统。 除了研究项目，学生将参与一系列丰富的活动，这将有助于他们成为更有信心的研究人员，包括做研究，技术写作，有效的演示，准备和申请研究生院，安全和工程和科学道德的研讨会。 社交活动也将是学生体验的一个组成部分，其目标是建立学生和教师之间的友谊和合作。 学生将为学术发现做出贡献，这些发现可能会为医疗，机器人，通信和监控应用带来更好的设备。 虽然该计划的主要重点是通过研究促进发现，但另一个重要方面是教育和学习部分。 学生将学习新的分析技术和传感器原理;熟悉最先进的设备，微和纳米制造技术和软件工具。 招聘工作将针对来自代表性不足的群体和没有或有限研究机会的较小学院的参与者，旨在增加工程研究生的人数。“这个网站是由国防部与NSF REU计划合作共同资助的。"
