This Research Experiences for Undergraduates site award to Miami University, located in Oxford, OH, supports the training of 10 students for 10 weeks during the summers of 2019-2021. This program, funded by the Division of Chemistry in the Mathematical and Physical Science Directorate, provides participants with wide-ranging, independent research experiences involving close student/faculty and student/student interactions. Participants choose from research projects in analytical, biological, inorganic, organic, physical chemistry, or chemistry education research, with most projects being interdisciplinary. These research experiences are designed to develop and refine participants' experimental skills and enhance their ability to work as part of a research team. Participants engage in professional development by developing research proposals and scientific presentations, learning about ethics in science, and exploring careers in chemistry and biochemistry. The combination of intense research, professional development, cohort building, and community involvement provides participants with a strong foundation for careers in STEM.The participants take part in research projects encompassing broad and interdisciplinary areas of chemistry, including the investigation of metalloenzymes, protein transport systems, liquid chromatography and electrophoresis, and molecular self-assembly. This program targets students from institutions with few research opportunities and those who are underrepresented in the physical sciences. To promote the chemistry and biochemistry workforce, this program exposes participants to new careers paths and gives them an opportunity to apply critical thinking skills to open-ended research.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

这项为俄亥俄州牛津大学的迈阿密大学本科生现场奖的研究经验支持了2019 - 2021年夏季10周的10个学生的培训。该计划由数学和物理科学局的化学部资助，为参与者提供了涉及近距离学生/教职员工和学生/学生互动的广泛独立研究经验。参与者从分析，生物，无机，有机，物理化学或化学教育研究中的研究项目中进行选择，其中大多数项目都是跨学科的。这些研究经验旨在发展和完善参与者的实验技能，并增强他们作为研究团队一部分工作的能力。参与者通过制定研究建议和科学演讲，了解科学中的道德规范以及探索化学和生物化学职业，从事专业发展。激烈的研究，专业发展，队列建设和社区参与的结合为参与者提供了良好的STEM职业基础。参与者参与了化学的广泛和跨学科领域的研究项目，包括对金属酶，蛋白质传输系统，液态色谱和电泳和电泳以及分子自我填充的研究。该计划针对的是来自很少研究机会的机构的学生，以及在物理科学中人数不足的学生。为了促进化学和生物化学劳动力，该计划使参与者了解了新的职业道路，并为他们提供了将批判性思维技能应用于开放式研究的机会。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子优点和更广泛的影响审查标准来通过评估来获得支持的。
