Georgetown University REU in Materials PhysicsEach year, nine undergraduates from diverse backgrounds and a broad spectrum of institutions will be recruited for a 10-week summer research experience in materials physics at Georgetown University. Students will engage in experimental, computational, and theoretical research projects in nanoscale physics, soft matter, device physics, active matter, biophysics, and cold-atom systems.Taking advantage of Georgetown's location in the nation's capital, students will be exposed to the role of science, particularly materials research, in public policy. These activities build on Georgetown?s existing programs designed to engage undergraduate science majors directly with the government on issues of national importance, and will help build an understanding of the connection between scientific research and the world outside of the laboratory. Students will also participate in a variety of professional development activities, many of which will be held jointly with the REU program in the Georgetown Chemistry Department.

乔治城大学材料物理学REU每年，来自不同背景和广泛机构的9名本科生将被招募在乔治城大学材料物理学为期10周的夏季研究经验。学生将参与纳米物理、软物质、器件物理、活性物质、生物物理和冷原子系统的实验、计算和理论研究项目。利用乔治敦位于美国首都的地理位置，学生将接触到科学，特别是材料研究在公共政策中的作用。这些活动是在乔治敦大学的基础上进行的吗该计划旨在让本科理科专业的学生直接与政府就国家重要性问题进行接触，并将有助于建立对科学研究与实验室外世界之间联系的理解。学生还将参加各种专业发展活动，其中许多活动将与乔治敦大学化学系的REU计划联合举行。
