Engineering Research Experience for Women and Minority Undergraduates

该项目旨在为德克萨斯a&m大学工程学院和相关大学的10名女性和少数族裔学生提供工程研究经验。该项目建立在现有的本科生暑期研究项目的基础上，该项目由德克萨斯工程实验站、少数民族工程项目和暑期丰富工程经验赞助。支持为合格的学生提供了一个机会，及时参与正在进行的研究项目，在他们的大三和大四之间，并允许他们发展为研究人员。参与该项目鼓励更多的学生对研究的基本原理有一个坚定的理解。这种支持不仅有利于学生参与者，也有利于学院，因为教师将更加关注少数民族学生的兴趣，从而成为更好的教师和研究顾问。

This project is directed toward the development of an engineering research experience for undergraduates in the College of Engineering at Texas A&M University and associated universities for 10 women and minority students. The program is built on the existing Undergraduate Summer Research Program sponsored by the Texas Engineering Experiment Station, the Minority Engineering Program, and the Summer Enrichment Experience in Engineering. The support provides an opportunity for qualified students to participate in timely on-going research programs, between their junior and senior years, and permit them to develop as researchers. Participation in the program encourages more students to develop a firm understanding of the fundamentals of research. The support benefits not only the student participants, but also the colleges because the faculty would become even more attuned to minority student interests and thereby become better teachers and research advisors.
