Undergraduate Experience in Polymer Science Research

这是一个研究经验的本科生网站奖在 南密西西比大学。 这些资金支持 十名本科生从候选人中选出， 在美国东南部的大学完成了三年的学业， 美国以及印第安纳州、伊利诺伊州、得克萨斯州、华盛顿和 威斯康星州。 参与包括夏季会议和 学年后。 特别强调 从代表性不足的群体，如女性和 少数群体 在物理科学领域学习三年的学生 考虑了 学业成绩是首要要求 参与该计划，考虑到 先前的研究经验，并由教员推荐。 聚合物科学和实验室安全的学术课程是 在为期10周的暑期课程中， 研究根据 对教师的监督将涉及以下领域的主题： 离聚物涂层和复合膜，结晶动力学，结晶动力学 半结晶离聚物，尼龙共聚物，接枝聚合物，和 生物相容性/表面活性剂凝聚层和生物相容性复合物 材料. 参与该计划的教授有很强的 在研究中与本科生互动的记录。

This is a Research Experiences for Undergraduates Site Award at the University of Southern Mississippi. The funds provide support for ten undergraduate students selected from candidates who have completed three years from colleges in the Southeastern United States as well as Indiana, Illinois, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. Participation includes a summer session and the following academic year. Special emphasis is placed upon recruitment from under-represented groups such as females and minorities. Students having three years in the physical sciences are considered. Scholastic achievement is the primary requirement for participation in the program, with consideration given for prior research experience, and recommendation by a faculty member. Scholastic courses on polymer science and laboratory safety are required during a ten week summer session. The research under supervision of faculty members will involve topics in the areas of ionomer coatings and composite membranes, crystallization kinetics of semicrystalline ionomers, nylon copolymers, graft polymers, and polyelectrolyte/surfactant coacervates, and bioabsorable composite materials. The professors involved in this program have a strong record of interaction with undergraduate students in research.
