REU Site: Security Printing and Anti-Counterfeiting Technology

矿业与技术的南达科他州学校，沿着其合作伙伴组织，建议实施为期10周的夏季研究经验，重点是安全印刷和防伪技术（SPACT），为10名本科生。在美国，伪造是一个日益严重的问题，造成严重的经济、安全和国家安全问题，并影响各种行业（如制药、半导体）。该网站将专注于变革性防伪技术的发展，包括安全印刷。安全印刷是一个需要在四个关键领域发展的领域，包括先进材料，先进制造/图案化技术，检测和加密技术，以及最后，将标记产品转换为安全最终产品的软件和数据库基础设施。主要目标是：1）在SPACT领域进行变革性研究，2）为多样化的本科生群体提供STEM研究接触和专业发展机会，其中一半将来自部落学院和其他STEM研究机会有限的机构。来自三个合作机构的多元化教师导师团队将通过应用科学和工程各个领域的研究方法来建立SPACT计划。长期目标是为STEM研究人员提供所需的培训和技能，以进行研究生学习并推进SPACT的发展领域。 教师将指导学生，并举办研讨会和讲习班，以补充学生在各种SPACT学科的现有学术培训。学生还将参加一个高度整合的专业发展和技术交流计划。这个REU网站是由国家科学基金会，工程教育和中心司支持。安全打印和防伪技术研究经验的本科生网站在南达科他州矿业与技术学院已经建立，以暴露本科生的多元化群体，一半将来自部落学院和其他机构与有限的STEM研究机会，到STEM研究环境，并帮助他们发展为专业人士。在美国，伪造是一个日益严重的问题，造成严重的经济、安全和国家安全问题，并影响各种行业（如制药、半导体）。学生研究的重点将是安全印刷和防伪技术的发展。 学生还将参加一个高度综合的专业发展和技术交流计划，旨在刺激专业发展和必要的研究技能的发展，在21世纪世纪取得成功。这个本科生网站的研究经验是由国家科学基金会，工程教育和中心司的支持。

The South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, along with its partner organizations, propose to implement a 10-week summer research experience focused on Security Printing and Anti-Counterfeiting Technology (SPACT), for 10 undergraduate students. Counterfeiting is a growing issue in the U.S., posing serious economic, safety and national security concerns and impacting a wide variety of industries (e.g. pharmaceutics, semiconductors). This REU Site will focus on development of transformative anti-counterfeiting technology, including security printing. Security printing is a field which demands development in four key areas including, advanced materials, advanced manufacturing/patterning technologies, detection and encryption technology, and finally, software and database infrastructure to convert marked products to security end products. The key objectives are to: 1) conduct transformative research in the field of SPACT, and 2) provide STEM research exposure and professional development opportunity to a diverse group of undergraduate students, half will come from Tribal Colleges and other institutions with limited STEM research opportunities. A diverse team of faculty mentors from three partner institutions will build a program in SPACT by applying research methods from various fields of science and engineering. The long term goal is to provide a diverse group of STEM researchers with the needed training and skills to pursue graduate studies and advance the developing field of SPACT. The faculty will mentor students and also conduct seminars and workshops to supplement student's existing academic training in various SPACT disciplines. Students will also participate in a highly integrated professional development and technical communications program. This REU Site is supported by the National Science Foundation, Division of Engineering Education and Centers. The Security Printing and Anti-Counterfeiting Technology Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site at the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology has been established to expose a diverse group of undergraduate students, half will come from Tribal Colleges and other institutions with limited STEM research opportunities, to the STEM research environment and help them develop as professionals. Counterfeiting is a growing issue in the U.S., posing serious economic, safety and national security concerns and impacting a wide variety of industries (e.g. pharmaceutics, semiconductors). The focus of the student research will be on the development of Security Printing and Anti-Counterfeiting Technology. Students will also participate in a highly integrated professional development and technical communications program designed to stimulate professional development and the development of research skills necessary to succeed in the 21st century.
