项目摘要

This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Texas Christian University provides eight undergraduate students the opportunity to participate in ten weeks of research on topics in atomic, molecular, bio, chemical, and statistical physics, as well as astronomy and planetary science. The main goal of the program is to provide a memorable and potentially career-defining experience for student participants, who may not have a clear direction of career path upon entering the program. Thoughtfully-selected field trips, weekly discussions with other students and faculty, and workshops on career-planning are vital components of the REU program, providing opportunities for students to consider a broad range of career possibilities and professions in physics and engineering-related fields extending beyond the focused summer research project. 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 given a formal presentation about their work and prepared a conference poster and a 10-page report. This award is supported by the Division of Physics and the Division of Astronomical Sciences within NSF's Mathematical and Physical Sciences Directorate.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.

德克萨斯基督教大学的本科生研究体验（REU）网站为8名本科生提供了参加为期10周的研究的机会，研究主题包括原子、分子、生物、化学和统计物理，以及天文学和行星科学。该计划的主要目标是为学生参与者提供一个难忘的和潜在的职业定义的经验，谁可能没有一个明确的方向进入该计划的职业道路。经过深思熟虑的实地考察，每周与其他学生和教师的讨论，以及职业规划研讨会是REU计划的重要组成部分，为学生提供了考虑物理和工程相关领域的广泛职业可能性和专业的机会，超出了集中的夏季研究项目。除了与经验丰富的导师一起参与研究外，REU的学生还将参加每周的活动，不仅确保他们的研究保持在轨道上，而且确保他们有一个引人入胜的大学和学术经历。在项目结束时，每个学生都将对他们的工作进行正式的展示，并准备一张会议海报和一份10页的报告。该奖项由美国国家科学基金会数学和物理科学理事会物理部和天文科学部支持。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
