Summer Undergraduate Research Program

*9732621海德拟议的项目延续了贝勒大学过去四个夏天已经实施的夏季本科生研究项目，目前得到贝勒和国家科学基金会的支持。七名学生将从公开申请中选出，该项目在全国各地的大学、研究能力很少或没有研究能力的较小本科院校以及历史上一直属于少数族裔的院校发布广告。通过位于www.baylor.edu/~Truell_Hyde/Script/URC.html的万维网网页提供完整的申请信息、部门研究信息以及申请该计划的能力。允许从德克萨斯州、俄克拉何马州、路易斯安那州、阿肯色州和堪萨斯州地区的小型私立机构识别和招收优秀学生。NSF研究员将在夏季与来自美国和几个国家的贝勒本科生和研究生进行互动。他们将参加每周两次的研讨会、社会活动、暑期本科生研究研讨会的结束以及各种感兴趣的物理研究领域的特别设计的课程。与过去一样，预计NSF研究员所做的夏季研究中至少有一部分将发表同行评议的出版物。与以往一样，将与在同一校园举行的其他区域研究联盟活动合作，提供参观附近工业和研究设施、社会活动以及联合研究研讨会的机会。这提供了更多数量的NSF夏季研究员，在十周的时间里与他们互动，并有助于产生一种“大”计划的感觉。***

*** 9732621 Hyde The proposed project continues a summer undergraduate research program already in place for the past four summers at Baylor and currently supported by both Baylor and the National Science Foundation. Seven students will be selected from open applications with the program advertised at universities around the nation, smaller undergraduate institutions with little or no research capability and historically minority institutions. Complete application information, departmental research information as well as the ability to apply to the program "on-line" is provided through a World Wide Web page located at www.baylor.edu/~Truell_Hyde/Scripts/URC.html. allows identification and recruitment of outstanding students from small, private institutions in the Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Kansas areas. The NSF Fellows will interact during the summer with Baylor undergraduate and graduate students from both the United States and several foreign countries. They will participate in twice weekly seminars, social activities, an end of the summer Undergraduate Research Symposium and specially designed classes in various physics research fields of interest. As in the past, it is expected that at least some of the summer research done by the NSF Fellows will result in peer reviewed publications. Trips to nearby industries and research facilities, social activities as well as joint research seminars will be offered (as in the past) in cooperation with other REU activities that will be held on the same campus. This provides for a much larger number of NSF Summer Fellows with which to interact during the ten week period and aids in producing a "large" program feel. ***
