Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Chemistry at the University of Alabama at Birmingham

通过该奖项，化学部门支持由阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校化学系的特雷西·p·汉密尔顿博士指导的本科生研究经验（REU）网站。从地方和区域机构招募的10名参与者将参加一个方案，该方案的基础是对研究前沿的最先进设施进行培训，对期刊文章的使用和理解，科学伦理方面的正式培训，通过研讨会和实地考察接触不同类型的研究职业，通过演讲改善科学交流，接触种族和文化多样化的工作场所，以及成功完成现实生活任务的成就感。传统上代表性不足的群体将通过与现有的国家科学基金会支持的少数民族参与联盟（AMP）计划和阿拉巴马州SEED计划的联系而成为目标。

With this award, the Chemistry Division supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site directed by Dr. Tracy P. Hamilton in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Alabama, Birmingham. The ten participants, recruited from local and regional institutions, will take part in a program based upon training on state-of-the-art facilities in the forefronts of research, use and understanding of journal articles, formal training in scientific ethics, exposure to different types of research careers through seminars and field trips, improving scientific communication through making a presentation, exposure to an ethnically and culturally diverse workplace, and a sense of accomplishment from successful completion of real life tasks. Traditionally underrepresented groups will be targeted through linkage with the existing NSF supported Alliance for Minority Participation (AMP) program and the Alabama SEED program.
