The Research Experiences for Undergraduates Sites program in the NSF Division of Chemistry supports Professor Geraldine Richmond and colleagues at the University of Oregon to host REU Site: Combining Career Preparation with Environmental Research in Chemistry, Physics, and Materials Science. This site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program. Twelve students are recruited for 10 weeks of interdisciplinary research each summer. Students choose from 18 interdisciplinary projects that focus on environmental issues. Research activities are augmented by career building workshops that include topics such as scientific and workplace communication, entrepreneurship, ethics, negotiation, and leadership. The site provides students with cutting edge research experiences, equips them with essential career skills, and develops long term mentoring relationships. The faculty involved with this interdisciplinary REU program come from chemistry, physics and materials science fields, allowing students to cross the traditional academic boundaries. Examples of the projects include the development of new solar materials, syntheses and characterization of environmentally relevant catalysts, creation of greener nanoparticle systems, and increasing the fundamental understanding of oil dispersants. The broader impact of this project is that it increases the number of science undergraduate students from underrepresented groups and increases the students' success in their careers.

在化学的NSF部门的本科生网站程序的研究经验支持教授杰拉尔丁里士满和同事在俄勒冈州的大学主办REU网站：在化学，物理和材料科学的环境研究相结合的职业准备。该网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作支持。每年夏天招收12名学生进行为期10周的跨学科研究。学生从18个专注于环境问题的跨学科项目中选择。研究活动通过职业建设讲习班得到加强，其中包括科学和工作场所沟通，创业，道德，谈判和领导力等主题。该网站为学生提供前沿的研究经验，为他们提供基本的职业技能，并发展长期的指导关系。参与这个跨学科REU项目的教师来自化学、物理和材料科学领域，让学生跨越传统的学术界限。这些项目的例子包括开发新的太阳能材料，合成和表征与环境相关的催化剂，创建更绿色的纳米颗粒系统，以及增加对石油分散剂的基本了解。这个项目的更广泛的影响是，它增加了来自代表性不足群体的理科本科生的数量，并增加了学生在职业生涯中的成功。
