Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Lasers and Optics

小行星9424231 REU在光学和激光研究和教育中心（CREOL）的网站将每年向全国招募10名本科生，提供为期12周的激光和光学研究经验。 这些方案的主要重点将是鼓励有才华的本科生，特别是妇女、少数民族和残疾人，攻读光学和激光领域的研究生课程。 在CREOL十个国际公认的教师将在这个项目的研究主管。 CREOL是世界领先的光学和激光研究中心。 该方案将包括：（1）光学和激光基本原理入门课程;（2）CREOL学院每周举办本科生研究研讨会;（3）每两周对奥兰多地区众多光学和激光公司进行一次工业访问;（4）每周就工程研究中的伦理问题、研究小组辅导进行课程和讨论;及（5）主要研究者持续监察学生的进度，主要是透过每周两次的辅导讨论会。 该计划将通过帮助学生获得奖学金进入研究生院并跟踪他们的职业发展来跟进。 ***

9424231 Hagan The REU Site in the Center for Research and Education in Optics and Lasers (CREOL) will expose ten undergraduate students per year, recruited nationally, to twelve weeks of research experiences in lasers and optics. A primary emphasis of these programs will be on encouraging talented undergraduate students, in particular women, minorities and persons with disabilities, to pursue graduate studies in the field of optics and lasers. Ten internationally recognized faculty in the CREOL will be Research Supervisors in this project. CREOL is a world-leading center of excellence in optics and laser research. The program will include: (1) An introductory course in the basic principals of optics and lasers; (2) Weekly Undergraduate Research Seminars by the CREOL Faculty; (3) Bi-weekly industrial visits to the numerous optics and laser companies in the Orlando area; (4) Weekly classes and discussions sessions on issues of ethics in engineering research, research group tutorials; and (5) Continuous monitoring of the students' progress by the principal investigators, primarily via twice-weekly tutorial discussion sessions. The program will be followed up by helping students get into graduate school with scholarships and by tracking their career progress. ***
