Penn State University continues operation of a Research Experiences for Undergraduates/Teachers Site hosted by the Penn State Department of Physics and the Penn State Materials Research Science and Engineering Center. Nineteen undergraduate students from diverse backgrounds are recruited every year for a ten-week summer research experience. Five teachers are supported every year for a six-week summer research experience.Science teachers and students majoring in science and engineering disciplines participate in a variety of research projects in condensed matter and materials research within laboratories located in science and engineering departments at Penn State. Working with top researchers and their groups on individual research projects, students receive training and information, which prepares them for the excitement and challenges of graduate school. Teachers transfer material science knowledge to classroom activities by developing appropriate resources with their peers and Penn State faculty. Participants attend weekly professional development seminars, weekly research seminars, ethic training, machine shop courses, facility tours, a trip to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, and present the results of their research at a symposium.

宾夕法尼亚州立大学继续运作由宾夕法尼亚州立大学物理系和宾夕法尼亚州立大学材料研究科学与工程中心主办的本科生/教师研究经验网站。来自不同背景的19名本科生每年被招募进行为期十周的夏季研究经验。每年有五名教师获得为期六周的暑期研究经验的支持。科学教师和科学与工程学科的学生在宾夕法尼亚州立大学科学与工程系的实验室内参加各种凝聚态物质和材料研究的研究项目。与顶级研究人员和他们的团队在个人研究项目上合作，学生接受培训和信息，为研究生院的兴奋和挑战做好准备。教师通过与同龄人和宾夕法尼亚州立大学的教师开发适当的资源，将材料科学知识转移到课堂活动中。参与者参加每周专业发展研讨会，每周研究研讨会，道德培训，机械车间课程，设施图尔斯之旅，前往费城的富兰克林研究所，并在研讨会上介绍他们的研究成果。
