This award supports the REU site in Spectroscopy at Coe College, sponsored jointly by the Physics and Chemistry departments, which continues a tradition of strong interaction with undergraduate students pursuing high-level, publishable research. The REU students will carry out research in glass science, optics, environmental chemistry, molecular biology, acoustics, and biomaterials, all under the common focus of spectroscopy. They will be exposed and trained in a variety of techniques, including FTIR, Raman, NMR, SEM, absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies, SPM, x-ray fluorescence, calorimetry, and others. The projects are designed to be suitable for undergraduates, but also challenging and leading to results of interest to external researchers. This year the site has added a Research Experience for Teachers component to the REU site to support k-12 teachers in seven weeks of summer research. This site is supported by the Divisions of Physics and Materials Research in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences, and is co-funded by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.

该奖项支持科学院光谱学REU网站，由物理系和化学系联合赞助，该网站延续了与追求高水平，可发表研究的本科生密切互动的传统。REU的学生将在玻璃科学，光学，环境化学，分子生物学，声学和生物材料方面进行研究，所有这些都在光谱学的共同重点下。他们将接触和培训各种技术，包括FTIR，拉曼，核磁共振，扫描电镜，吸收和荧光光谱，SPM， x射线荧光，量热法等。这些项目的设计适合本科生，但也具有挑战性，并导致外部研究人员感兴趣的结果。今年，该网站在REU网站上增加了教师研究经验部分，以支持k-12教师进行为期七周的夏季研究。该网站由数学和物理科学理事会物理和材料研究部提供支持，并由国防部与NSF REU项目合作资助。
