This award provides travel and participant support for seven U.S. undergraduate students per year for 3 years, to undertake a 3-month research program in carbon nanotube technology at the Instituto Potosino de Investigacion Cientifica y Tecnologica (IPICYT) in Mexico.Students will choose from among eight projects at the forefront of nanotube research, and will work with the U.S. investigators, Drs. Pulickel Ajayan and Enrique Barrera of Rice University, highly recognized investigators in this field and with well-established Mexican investigator Dr. Mauricio Terrones at IPICYT. The young researchers will be exposed to state-of the-art facilities in an international setting. Students will be mentored while at the facility, and will publish and present their work. Additionally, web-based communication will be on-going after the international experience to foster a continuing relationship between the students and their mentors.The project activities will advance nanoscience discovery and understanding while promoting teaching, training and learning and establishing strong ties between the U.S. and Mexico in nanoscience research.

该奖项每年为7名美国本科生提供旅行和参加资助，为期3年，他们将在墨西哥的Potosino研究科学技术研究所（IPICYT）进行为期3个月的碳纳米管技术研究项目。学生们将从纳米管研究的八个前沿项目中进行选择，并将与美国研究人员dr。Rice大学的Pulickel Ajayan和Enrique Barrera，在这一领域得到高度认可的研究者，以及IPICYT的知名墨西哥研究者Mauricio Terrones博士。年轻的研究人员将在国际环境中接触最先进的设施。学生们将在这里接受指导，并将发表和展示他们的作品。此外，网络交流将在国际经验之后继续进行，以促进学生和他们的导师之间的持续关系。该项目活动将促进纳米科学的发现和理解，同时促进教学、培训和学习，并在美国和墨西哥之间建立纳米科学研究的牢固联系。
