Faculty Development Award

该奖项是根据2009年美国复苏和再投资法案（公法111-5）资助的。这个教师发展奖支持研究、教学和推广的有效整合。研究目标是了解有机材料中的离子和电子电流。离子对单体为有机电子应用中更好地控制掺杂和电化学过程提供了一条途径。西华盛顿大学先进材料科学与工程中心（AMSEC）的成立为本科研究人员提供了新材料科学辅修课程、新课程开发和工业实习机会。探索队奖学金计划支持博士后和专业发展模式，将研究专长与专业服务相结合。探索队博士后有资格申请本学院发展奖。

This award is funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-5).This Faculty Development Award supports the effective integration of research, teaching and outreach. The research goals are to understand ionic and electronic currents in organic materials. Ion-paired monomers provide an avenue to better control doping and electrochemical processes in organic electronic applications. The establishment of the Advanced Materials Science and Engineering Center (AMSEC) at Western Washington University provides an opportunity for a new materials science minor, new curriculum development and industrial internship opportunities for undergraduate researchers. The Discovery Corps Fellowship Program supported postdoctoral and professional development models that combined research expertise with professional service. Discovery Corps Postdoctoral Fellows are eligible to apply for this Faculty Development Award.
