Undergraduate Research in Experimental Physics: Summer Bridge Program

*本科生参加正在进行的实验物理研究项目的机会是在亚利桑那大学的暑期REU项目中构建的。学生可以在物理系资深教员的指导下，从各种各样的前沿物理活动中进行选择。学生的主要受众将是那些在皮马社区学院完成了相当于一年级或二年级理工科课程的学生，为转到四年制学位课程做准备。这项计划也适用于来自亚利桑那州南部以外地区的类似准备的学生，他们将在夏季居住在图森。物理系的研究生助教担任学生的导师。特别指导和技能活动是单独定制的，使学生在完成夏季REU计划后，能够继续他们与研究项目的联系，最常见的是作为受薪实验室助理。招聘活动特别强调妇女和任职人数偏低的少数群体。由于大多数学生将在他们科学教育的非常早期就开始这个项目，我们鼓励他们继续发展，允许过去的参与者在随后的暑期课程中申请入学。***

*** Thews Opportunities for undergraduate students to participate in ongoing research projects in experimental physics are structured in a summer REU program at the University of Arizona. Students may choose from a wide variety of forefront physics activities, under the direction of senior faculty members from the Department of Physics. The main student audience will be those who have finished the equivalent of the first or second year curriculum in science or engineering at Pima Community College, in preparation for transfer to a 4-year degree program. This program is also available to similarly prepared students from regions outside southern Arizona who will be resident in Tucson during the summer. Graduate Teaching Assistants from the physics department serve as mentors for the students. Special orientation and skills activities are individually tailored to enable the students to continue their associations with the research project after the completion of the summer REU program, most often as paid laboratory associates. Recruitment activities place special emphasis on women and underrepresented minorities. Because most students will start in this program at a very early point in their scientific education, we encourage continuity in their development by allowing past participants to apply for admission in subsequent summer sessions. ***
