The Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign provides twelve undergraduate students each summer the opportunity to participate in research on topics in biological physics, high-energy physics, nuclear physics, acoustical physics, astrophysics and condensed matter physics. In addition to participating in research with an experienced team of mentors, the REU students will gain knowledge of and practice technical communications, research collaboration and networking, and responsible conduct of research. They are given career guidance and advice on applying for graduate school and graduate research fellowships. By the end of the program, every student will have presented the results of the work in a mid-term talk, a final talk, and a research paper.This REU site will have a number of broader impacts with its focus on providing research opportunities to undergraduates to help prepare them for future science, technology, engineering, and mathematics careers. The site has a strong plan to recruit undergraduate students from groups underrepresented in physics and from non-research institutions. The project is informed by an on-going evaluation and there is a plan to disseminate successful undergraduate research practices.

伊利诺伊大学厄巴纳-香槟分校的本科生研究经验（REU）网站每年夏天为12名本科生提供参与生物物理，高能物理，核物理，声学物理，天体物理和凝聚态物理主题研究的机会。 除了与经验丰富的导师团队一起参与研究外，REU学生还将获得技术交流，研究协作和网络以及负责任的研究行为的知识和实践。他们在申请研究生院和研究生研究奖学金方面得到职业指导和建议。在课程结束时，每个学生都将在期中演讲、期末演讲和研究论文中展示工作成果。REU网站将产生广泛的影响，重点是为本科生提供研究机会，帮助他们为未来的科学、技术、工程和数学职业做好准备。该网站有一个强有力的计划，从物理学代表性不足的群体和非研究机构招收本科生。该项目是由一个正在进行的评估，并有一个计划，以传播成功的本科研究实践。
