This award from the Division of Chemistry at the National Science Foundation supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduate (REU) Site led by Professors Andrew Greenberg and Robert Hamers, both at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. The REU Site entitled "Chemistry of Materials for Renewable Energy" (CMRE REU) will fund 11 to 12 undergraduate students for a 10 week summer research experiences. Students will conduct individual research projects focused on chemical research applied to problems in renewable energy. The CMRE REU program will help students to strengthen their written and oral communication skills through proposal presentations, mid-experience report writing, and poster presentations. A novel aspect of the CMRE REU program is the encouragement of students to participate in an outreach experience with the Institute for Chemical Education's (ICE) "Fun with Chemistry Camp" to teach 5th-8th students about solar energy. To ensure proper mentoring and development of CMRE REU students, this project includes a mentoring workshop for graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and faculty working directly with the REU Program.Broader Impacts of the award involves young scientists who will be exposed to modern research methods and tools as part of their training. This REU site aims to provide cutting-edge research training in the chemical sciences to these students who might not otherwise have this opportunity. The research projects in chemistry will have an impact in the areas of energy and sustainability. The diverse student cohort participating in research at this site will be well-prepared for graduate school, and eventual employment as part of the country's technical workforce.

来自美国国家科学基金会化学部的这一奖项支持由威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校的Andrew Greenberg和Robert Hamers教授领导的本科生（REU）研究经验网站。REU网站名为“可再生能源材料化学”（CMRE REU）将资助11至12名本科生进行为期10周的夏季研究。学生将进行个人研究项目，重点是应用于可再生能源问题的化学研究。CMRE REU计划将帮助学生通过提案演示，中期经验报告写作和海报演示来加强他们的书面和口头沟通技巧。CMRE REU计划的一个新方面是鼓励学生参加化学教育研究所（ICE）的“化学营乐趣”的外展体验，向第5 - 8名学生传授太阳能知识。为了确保CMRE REU学生的适当指导和发展，该项目包括为研究生，博士后研究员和直接与REU计划合作的教师举办的指导研讨会。该奖项的更广泛影响涉及年轻科学家，他们将接触现代研究方法和工具，作为他们培训的一部分。这个REU网站旨在为这些可能没有机会的学生提供化学科学的前沿研究培训。化学研究项目将对能源和可持续发展领域产生影响。在该研究中心参与研究的多元化学生群体将为研究生院和最终作为国家技术劳动力的一部分就业做好充分准备。
