The Analytical and Surface Chemistry Program of the Division of Chemistry will support the CAREER development plan of Prof. Jennifer Shumaker-Parry of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Utah. Prof. Shumaker-Parry and her students will develop and study unique plasmonic architectures with optical properties that may be tailored through organized assembly and controlled fabrication methods. Fundamental studies of the correlation of optical properties with structure shape and assembly will form a basis for tailoring and optimizing these plasmonic systems as enhanced platforms for sensing and spectroscopy applications. The research will provide multidisciplinary training for graduate and undergraduate students. Prof. Shumaker-Parry also will integrate research in nanomaterials and spectroscopy with educational activities focused on development of a week-long module for a summer scholars program for in-coming freshman women interested in math and science careers and a mentoring program for local middle school Mathematics Engineering Science Achievement (MESA) clubs to encourage minority and female students to continue on a STEM-based track into high school and in their careers.

化学系的分析和表面化学课程将支持犹他州大学化学系的Jennifer Shumaker-Parry教授的职业发展计划。Shumaker-Parry教授和她的学生将开发和研究具有光学特性的独特等离子体结构，这些结构可以通过有组织的组装和受控的制造方法进行定制。光学性质与结构形状和组装的相关性的基础研究将形成定制和优化这些等离子体系统作为传感和光谱应用的增强平台的基础。这项研究将为研究生和本科生提供多学科培训。Shumaker-Parry教授还将把纳米材料和光谱学的研究与教育活动相结合，重点是为对数学和科学事业感兴趣的大一女生制定为期一周的夏季学者计划，并为当地中学数学工程科学成就（梅萨）俱乐部制定指导计划，以鼓励少数民族和女学生继续学习STEM。在高中和职业生涯中，
