Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Chemistry at Wake Forest University

本科生研究体验(REU)网站项目是在化学领域。从1992年开始，12名本科生将在每年夏天花10周的时间在化学系教职员工的指导下从事基础研究。REU项目的重点是通过接触大学内外的新学生群体，刺激在科学领域从事研究型职业的学生人数的增加，提供本科生研究经验的好处，让学生了解化学作为一种职业的潜力，并帮助他们充分实现科学潜力。该计划包括为期10周的研究、学术学分、系列研讨会、住房、旅行基金和社会活动。14个参与学院的研究项目范围广泛，包括有机和无机合成、动力学和力学研究、计算化学、分析仪器设计、环境分析化学、结晶方法、固态化学和电化学。

This Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site project is in the field of chemistry. Beginning in 1992, twelve undergraduate students will spend ten weeks each summer engaged in basic research under the direction of the faculty members in the Chemistry Department. The focus of the REU project is to stimulate an increase in the number of students pursuing research-oriented careers in science, by reaching out to new populations of students, both outside and inside the University, to provide the benefits of undergraduate research experience, to inform students of the potential that chemistry holds as a career, and to aid in their realization of full scientific potential. The program includes ten weeks of research, academic credit, a seminar series, housing, travel funds and social activities. The research projects of the fourteen participating faculty span a wide range that includes organic and inorganic synthesis, kinetic and mechanistic studies, computational chemistry, analytical instrument design, environmental analytical chemistry, crystallization methods, solid-state chemistry, and electrochemistry.
