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.

乔治敦大学材料物理学年度的REU，来自不同背景的九名本科生，将招募各种各样的机构，以在乔治敦大学（Georgetown University）在材料物理学上进行为期10周的夏季研究经验。学生将在纳米级物理学，软质物质，设备物理，主动物质，生物物理学和冷原子系统中从事实验，计算和理论研究项目。乔治敦在美国首都的位置的优势，学生将在公共政策中扮演科学，尤其是科学材料研究的角色。这些活动建立在乔治敦的现有计划的基础上，旨在直接与政府有关国家重要性问题与政府互动，并将有助于建立对科学研究与实验室以外世界之间的联系的理解。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化学系的REU计划共同举行。
