This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the College of William and Mary provides twelve undergraduate students each summer the opportunity to participate in research on topics in atomic, molecular, and optical physics, condensed matter physics, nuclear and particle physics, theoretical physics, applied physics, and non-destructive evaluation. In addition to participating in research with an experienced mentor, the REU students will engage in weekly activities to ensure not only that their research stays on track but that they have an engaging collegial and scholarly experience. By the end of the program, every student will have shared highlights of the research through a weekly public blog, given two research presentations, one of which is either a talk at the end of the program or a poster presentation. 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. The project plans to be informed by an on-going evaluation, which examines clear goals.

威廉和玛丽学院的本科生研究经验（REU）网站每年夏天为12名本科生提供参与原子，分子和光学物理，凝聚态物理，核和粒子物理，理论物理，应用物理和非破坏性评估主题研究的机会。除了与经验丰富的导师一起参与研究外，REU学生还将参加每周的活动，以确保他们的研究不仅保持在正轨上，而且他们拥有引人入胜的大学和学术经验。在课程结束时，每个学生都将通过每周的公共博客分享研究的亮点，给出两个研究报告，其中一个是在课程结束时的演讲或海报演示。这个REU网站将有一些更广泛的影响，其重点是为本科生提供研究机会，以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中招募本科生。该项目计划通过正在进行的评估了解情况，评估将审查明确的目标。
