REU Site: Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Materials Science and Engineering

小行星9731960 伦斯勒理工学院（RPI）将在材料科学和工程领域建立本科生研究经验（REU）网站。 本科生将从拥有强大工程和科学课程的大学和学院招募，包括女子学院和历史上的黑人学院和大学。学生将参与广泛的材料研究，从热障涂层的稳定性到纳米结构材料的合成;基本的共同主题是结构-性能关系。 这个REU计划的目标是让学生接触到他们的基本工作，以解决工程问题的应用。 为此，学生们将花一部分时间在当地的工业基地。研究项目的多学科性质以及与行业伙伴的密切联系将为参与该计划的本科生提供宝贵的经验 *

9731960 Schadler The Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) will establish a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) site in materials science and engineering. Undergraduate students will be recruited from universities and colleges with strong engineering and science programs, including women's colleges and Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Students will participate in a wide range of materials research, from the stability of thermal barrier coatings to the synthesis of nanostructured materials; the underlying common theme is structure-property relationships. %%% A goal of this REU program is to expose the students to application of their fundamental work to solve an engineering problem. For this, the students will spend a portion of their time at a local industrial site. The multidisciplinary nature of the research projects and close liaison with industry associates will provide a valuable experience to the undergraduate students participating in the program ***
