Research Experience for Undergraduates

继续资助一个正在进行的本科研究项目，该项目五年来一直在夏季培训电气工程和计算机科学专业的学生，然后再寻求他们的高年级。学生将从各种其他学校招募，主要包括本科院校。研究环境将通过其他来源资助的额外本科生来丰富。每个参与者将与个别教师导师定期会议，以计划工作和审查整个11周计划的进展。电子物理学的专题将包括人造电浆、微波传播。微带天线、激光器的倍频、皮秒光电子学和薄膜器件。信息系统的主题将包括图像通信，多变量反馈控制，连续相位调制数字信号，局域网仿真工具和机器人。所有人都将受益于与参与教师和研究生的广泛互动。参加者将参观我们的研究实验室，获得丰富的信息图尔斯。将有两个或三个研讨会介绍给该集团的领导人从行业，大学或政府机构。参观将安排在附近的工业实验室或国家实验室。该计划将以为期两天的研究审查结束，在此期间，每个学生将做一个演示和回答他的报告摘要。最佳方案将获奖。

Continued funding for an ongoing undergraduate research program that for five years has been training electrical engineering and computer science students during the summers before their senior years is sought. Students will be recruited from a variety of other schools, including primarily undergraduate institutions. The research environment will be enriched by additional undergraduate students funded from other sources. Each participant will have regular meetings with an individual faculty mentor to plan work and review progress throughout the eleven week program. Project topics in electrophysics will include artificial plasmas, microwave propagation. microstrip antennas, frequency doubling in lasers, picosecond opto- electronics, and thin film devices. Information systems topics will include image communication, multi-variable feedback control, continuous phase modulation digital signalling, LAN simulation tools, and robotics. All will benefit from extensive interactions with participating faculty and graduate students. Participants will have informative tours of our research laboratories. There will be two or three seminar presentations to the group by leaders from industry, universities or government agencies. A tour will be arranged at a nearby industrial lab or national laboratory. The program will terminate with a two-day research review during which each student will make a presentation and answer abstract of his report. A prize will be awarded to the best project.
