Non-Technical AbstractTo improve educational and research opportunities in the Hispanic serving (~70% Hispanic student body) New Mexico Highlands University (NMHU) collaborative project between NMHU and Ohio State University (OSU) was developed. This multi-institutional and multidisciplinary project allows for achieving a higher level of understanding of materials design in areas of electronic, optical and magnetic properties. Faculty in physics, engineering, chemistry and geology with strong expertise in a broad area of materials science will be able to assist students, especially from underrepresented groups, to enter into state-of-the-art materials research via research related education. The NMHU-OSU partnership will systematically impact undergraduate, graduate, postgraduate students and faculty at all partner institutions. In New Mexico, at the high school level, PREM will use the dual credit and Achieving in Research, Mathematics and Science (ARMAS) Center to encourage and engage students in science education programs at the High Schools. At NMHU in collaboration with OSU, two new materials science courses devoted to an in-depth understanding of materials structure and magnetic properties of materials will be designed. OSU experts will visit to deliver guest lectures and special community high-tech seminars accompanied by lively PREM receptions to encourage mixing of high school and university students and faculty. Undergraduates from NMHU will be invited to perform hands-on research projects at OSU Research Experience for Undergraduate (REU) summer program. For master?s level students one semester of study at OSU will be offered to promote their future admission into PhD programs at OSU or other research universities. The existing PREM and OSU partnership with Los Alamos and Argonne National Laboratory will allow for NMHU student summer internships. It is in New Mexico's and the nation's best interests to train young residents to qualify for home-grown jobs that require expertise in various fields of technology. Technical AbstractThe main goals of the proposed partnership led by Prof. Timofeeva (NMHU) and Prof. Johnston-Halperin (OSU) will include understanding the principles of materials design, synthesis, and applications in areas of materials with electronic, optical and magnetic properties. A new approach to materials design and crystal engineering will allow for the combination of two or more components in one crystalline material which brings significant alteration of electronic properties of multi-component systems. Construction of new porous metalorganic frameworks, which can be doped with magnetic particles, will allow for creation of new sensors, drug delivery systems, magnetic-based cooling systems, and other applications. Collaboration with OSU will allow NMHU researchers and students to start new for NMHU area of materials science related to 2D graphene and its varieties, modified by absorbed metal nanoparticles. These fundamental studies will suggest pathways for future applications of such materials. Collaborative use OSU and NMHU existing research facilities will broaden opportunities for multidisciplinary research training. The research results of the NMHU-OSU PREM partnership will be disseminated via publications in peer reviewed journals and presented at domestic and international conferences. PREM will open the door for young people interested in gaining a foothold in areas of study that are directly relevant to the research interests and needs of the state and nation.

非技术摘要 为了改善拉美裔学生（约 70% 的拉美裔学生群体）的教育和研究机会，新墨西哥高地大学 (NMHU) 与俄亥俄州立大学 (OSU) 之间开发了合作项目。这个多机构和多学科项目可以让人们对电子、光学和磁性能领域的材料设计有更高水平的理解。在材料科学广泛领域拥有丰富专业知识的物理、工程、化学和地质学教师将能够帮助学生，特别是来自代表性不足群体的学生，通过研究相关教育进入最先进的材料研究。 NMHU-OSU 的合作伙伴关系将系统地影响所有合作机构的本科生、研究生、研究生和教师。在新墨西哥州的高中阶段，PREM 将利用双学分和研究、数学和科学成就 (ARMAS) 中心来鼓励和吸引学生参与高中的科学教育项目。 NMHU 将与 OSU 合作设计两门新的材料科学课程，致力于深入了解材料结构和材料的磁性。 OSU 专家将到访并举办客座讲座和特别社区高科技研讨会，并举办热闹的 PREM 招待会，以鼓励高中生和大学学生和教师的交流。 NMHU 的本科生将被邀请在 OSU 本科生研究体验 (REU) 暑期项目中进行实践研究项目。对于硕士水平的学生，将在俄勒冈州立大学进行一个学期的学习，以促进他们未来进入俄勒冈州立大学或其他研究型大学的博士课程。 PREM 和 OSU 与洛斯阿拉莫斯和阿贡国家实验室现有的合作伙伴关系将为 NMHU 学生提供暑期实习机会。培训年轻居民使其有资格从事需要各个技术领域专业知识的本土工作，符合新墨西哥州和国家的最佳利益。技术摘要 Timofeeva 教授（NMHU）和 Johnston-Halperin 教授（OSU）领导的拟议合作伙伴关系的主要目标将包括了解材料设计、合成的原理以及在具有电子、光学和磁性的材料领域的应用。一种新的材料设计和晶体工程方法将允许在一种晶体材料中组合两种或多种成分，从而显着改变多成分系统的电子特性。构建可掺杂磁性颗粒的新型多孔金属有机框架将允许创建新的传感器、药物输送系统、基于磁性的冷却系统和其他应用。与俄勒冈州立大学的合作将使 NMHU 研究人员和学生能够在 NMHU 材料科学领域开始新的领域，该领域涉及通过吸收的金属纳米颗粒进行改性的二维石墨烯及其品种。这些基础研究将为此类材料的未来应用提出途径。合作使用 OSU 和 NMHU 现有的研究设施将拓宽多学科研究培训的机会。 NMHU-OSU PREM 合作伙伴关系的研究成果将通过同行评审期刊上的出版物进行传播，并在国内和国际会议上展示。 PREM 将为有兴趣在与国家和民族的研究兴趣和需求直接相关的研究领域立足的年轻人打开大门。
