This award is to support the renewal of the Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site program in the Physics Department at the University of Washington. The program offers a broad selection of student projects from many sub-fields of physics, for ten weeks of summer research. It makes use of the University of Washington's strong in-house "table-top" experimental programs; its outstanding machine-shop facilities including a first-rate student shop; CENPA, a DOE center-of-excellence in nuclear physics and astrophysics; and theory opportunities ranging from the Institute for Nuclear Theory to a twenty-teraflop local cluster. Each student participant will be partnered with a UW faculty advisor. Most Physics faculty members participate as advisors, as do selected faculty from affiliated departments. Student work includes: design, construction, and commissioning of instrumentation; data collection and analysis; numerical modeling; the development of software for such modeling; and theory. A variety of social activities that allow students to see the Seattle area and to interact with other students are also planned.

该奖项是为了支持在华盛顿大学物理系本科生（REU）的研究经验现场程序的更新。该计划提供了一个广泛的选择，从物理学的许多子领域的学生项目，为期十周的夏季研究。它利用了华盛顿大学强大的内部“桌面”实验项目;其出色的机械车间设施，包括一流的学生商店; CENPA，能源部核物理和天体物理学卓越中心;以及从核理论研究所到20万亿次本地集群的理论机会。每个学生参与者将与UW的教师顾问合作。大多数物理教师作为顾问参加，从附属部门选择的教师也是如此。学生工作包括：仪器的设计、建造和调试;数据收集和分析;数值建模;此类建模软件的开发;以及理论。各种各样的社交活动，让学生看到西雅图地区，并与其他学生互动也计划。
