REU SITE: Summer Research Projects in Contemporary Physics for Women and Minorities

REU将为妇女和少数民族开展一个网站项目， 成立于物理系在大学的 芝加哥。 本项目的首要目标是 积极鼓励代表性不足的少数群体成员 和女性从事物理学职业的机会。 该项目是一部分 一个全面的计划，由该部进行， 增加妇女和少数民族在物理学中的入学人数， 一般，特别是在研究生博士学位。程序作为 好. 该项目将包括放置10个选定的 不同学院的研究小组内的个人， 每年夏天10天。 这些项目将涵盖 物理学研究领域的多样性（大部分 实验），包括高能物理，宇宙射线和 空间物理，凝聚态物理，非线性动力学， 化学物理学和天体物理学。 的研究经验 非正式审查的可用性将得到增强， 与物理系教师进行咨询。

An REU site project for women and minorities will be established in the Department of Physics at the University of Chicago. The overriding objective of this project is to actively encourage members of underrepresented minority groups and women to pursue careers in physics. This project is part of a comprehensive program undertaken by the Department to increase enrollment of women and minorities in physics in general and in particular in the graduate Ph.D. program as well. The project will consist of placing 10 selected individuals within research groups of different faculty for a 10 week period each summer. These projects will cover a variety of Physics research areas (for the most part experimental) including high energy physics, cosmic ray and space physics, condensed matter physics, nonlinear dynamics, chemical physics, and astrophysics. The research experience will be augmented by the availability of informal review and advising sessions with members of the Physics faculty.
