This award by the Chemistry Division supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University at Buffalo for the summers of 2009-2011. The program director is Janet Morrow and the co-director is Sarbajit Banerjee. Eight students will participate in a ten-week program by working with faculty members on chemistry projects relating to global sustainability including inorganic /organic materials for catalysis and energy related research, environmental analytical chemistry, medicinal chemistry and chemical biology. The program will recruit students from local and national colleges and universities, especially from primarily undergraduate institutions. In addition, recruiting efforts are focused on institutions with underrepresented groups including Puerto Rican institutions, colleges in the New York City area and institutions that participate in New York state LSAMP program. Students will attend weekly lectures and workshops on ethics, selection of graduate schools, careers, and research topics. Group activities to build a community of practice will include weekly research meetings with graduate student and faculty mentors, an oral presentation for the REU participants and mentors, and a poster presentation for students and faculty. In addition, there will be field trips to several chemical industry sites and research centers in Western New York to expose students to different careers in chemistry. Both formal and informal evaluations will be conducted with the help of an external evaluator, Rene Palmer, from St. John?s University.

化学部的这一奖项支持了2009-2011年夏季在布法罗大学的本科生研究经验（REU）网站。 节目导演是珍妮特·莫罗，联合导演是Sarbajit Banerjee。 八名学生将参加为期十周的课程，与教师一起研究与全球可持续发展有关的化学项目，包括用于催化和能源相关研究的无机/有机材料，环境分析化学，药物化学和化学生物学。 该计划将从地方和国家学院和大学，特别是从主要的本科院校招收学生。 此外，招聘工作的重点是机构与代表性不足的群体，包括波多黎各机构，学院在纽约市地区和机构参加纽约州LSAMP计划。 学生将参加每周的讲座和研讨会的道德，研究生院，职业和研究课题的选择。 建立实践社区的小组活动将包括每周与研究生和教师导师的研究会议，REU参与者和导师的口头介绍，以及学生和教师的海报展示。 此外，将有实地考察几个化学工业的网站和研究中心在西纽约，让学生接触到不同的职业化学。 正式和非正式评价都将在来自圣约翰的外部评价员雷内·帕尔默的帮助下进行。s大学。
