This award will support the renewal of a 10-week summer REU (Research Experiences for Undergraduates) Site program serving 8 student interns per year at the University of Florida (UF). The REU program will leverage access to cutting-edge supercomputing facilities that include the UF’s Informatics Institute as well as the newly established AI initiative on campus. Participating students will be involved in research that will provide training in a critically emerging area for careers both within and outside the academia. The program will also provide educational opportunities outside of the laboratory to build professional writing, oral presentations, and networking skills.The program is fully committed to working toward the recruitment, admission, training, and empowerment of a diverse REU cohort. To this end they are fostering long-term relationships with regional colleges and universities with limited research opportunities while also recruiting nationally. They intend to partner with other undergraduate programs on the UF campus to broaden the reach of these opportunities to nearly 100 undergraduates every summer.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.

这项奖励将支持续签为期10周的暑期REU(本科生研究经验)现场项目，每年为佛罗里达大学(UF)的8名学生实习生提供服务。REU计划将利用对尖端超级计算设施的访问，其中包括UF的信息学研究所以及新建立的校园人工智能倡议。参与的学生将参与研究，为学术界内外的职业生涯提供关键新兴领域的培训。该计划还将提供实验室外的教育机会，以建立专业的写作、口头演示和网络技能。该计划完全致力于为多样化的REU队列的招募、录取、培训和授权而努力。为此，他们正在培养与研究机会有限的地区学院和大学的长期关系，同时还在全国范围内招聘。他们打算与密歇根大学校园内的其他本科生项目合作，将这些机会的覆盖范围扩大到每年夏天近100名本科生。这一奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
