Research Experiences for Undergraduates SITE at Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department, Syracuse University

雪城大学机械和航空航天工程系计划向完成大三学业的积极进取、学业优异的工程本科生颁发研究津贴。该项目包括夏季和学年两个部分。每年，八名REU参与者中有五名从雪城大学以外的学院和大学的申请者中被选中参加夏季研究。剩下的三名学生将从雪城大学机械和航空航天工程专业的大四学生中挑选出来参加暑期研究。招聘工作的一个特别重点是吸引少数族裔、女性和身体残疾学生的合格参与者，包括雪城大学内外的学生。机械和航空航天工程系的六名教员对监督参与者的研究工作表现出积极的兴趣。这些教师积极从事的研究领域包括实验和计算流体力学、气体动力学、空气动力学、传热、空气声学、噪声控制、复合材料和纤维材料的力学行为。REU参与者可以在这些研究领域中的任何一个选择一个研究问题。对于教师指导，研究参与者选择的研究项目和教师指导的专业领域将相匹配。

The Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at Syracuse University plans to award research stipends to motivated and academically superior engineering undergraduates who have completed their junior year studies. The program has both the summer and academic year components. Each year, five of the eight REU participants are selected for summer research participation from applicants from colleges and universities other than Syracuse University. The remaining three students are selected for summer research participation from the seniors in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Syracuse University. A particular focus of recruitment effort is to attract qualified participants from minority, women, and physically disabled students, both from within and without Syracuse. Six faculty members in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department have expressed active interest in supervising the research efforts of the participants. The areas in which these faculty members are actively engaged in research span experimental and computational fluid mechanics, gasdynamics, aerodynamics, heat transfer, aeroacoustics, noise control, composite materials, and mechanical behavior of fibrous materials. A REU participant may select a research problem in any one of these research areas. For faculty supervision, research participant's choice of a research project and faculty supervisor's field of specialization will be matched.
