This three-year renewal REU Site will introduce and involve undergraduate students in research focused in the areas of metrology and sensors. The participants will research foundational research areas such as coordinate tolerance metrology, machining tribology, roughness metrology as well as emerging areas such as Scanning Probe Microscopy, Laser Doppler Velocimetry, sensor networks, optical interferometry, spectroscopy and Nano, Enviro- and Bio sensors. The students will participate in individual as well as team research. Also, each participant will learn to conduct literature surveys, formulate hypotheses, design experiments to collect data, analyze and interpret the data and communicate their work through written and oral presentations. An ethics component will be incorporated in this REU program. Faculty presentations of research, workshops, lab/industry tours, progress reports, and social activities will all be structured.Recruitment efforts will be targeted to underrepresented minorities in engineering to include women, Native Americans, Hispanic and African-American students. Students will be recruited nationally, specifically targeting those that come from non-research institutions where such opportunities may not be available. The program will attempt to motivate students to participate in future research leading to graduate and doctoral work. Further, this experience is expected to prepare students in the process of research that will benefit their place of employment, regardless of whether it is academe, the research laboratory or industry.

这个为期三年的更新REU网站将介绍和涉及本科生的研究集中在计量和传感器领域。与会者将研究基础研究领域，如坐标公差测量、加工摩擦学、粗糙度测量，以及新兴领域，如扫描探针显微镜、激光多普勒测速、传感器网络、光学干涉测量、光谱学和纳米、环境和生物传感器。学生将参与个人和团队研究。此外，每个参与者将学习进行文献调查，制定假设，设计实验来收集数据，分析和解释数据，并通过书面和口头报告交流他们的工作。伦理部分将被纳入该REU计划。教师的研究报告、研讨会、实验室/行业参观、进度报告和社会活动都将被组织起来。招聘工作将针对工程领域代表性不足的少数族裔，包括女性、印第安人、西班牙裔和非裔美国学生。学生将在全国范围内招募，特别针对那些来自非研究机构的学生，因为这些学生可能没有这样的机会。该计划将试图激励学生参与未来的研究，从而获得研究生和博士学位。此外，这种经历有望为学生在研究过程中做好准备，这将有利于他们的就业场所，无论是学术界，研究实验室还是工业界。
