Research Experience for Undergraduates in Chemistry at The University of Alabama

该项目由化学部资助，支持Lowell Kispert博士，John B。Vincent和亚拉巴马塔斯卡卢萨大学化学系的其他成员在重建化学本科生研究经验（REU）网站。在2000-2002年期间，39名本科生将花费10周的时间进行项目，这些项目通常是在化学教师的直接监督下进行的跨学科性质的项目，这些教师在指导本科生研究方面具有丰富的经验。 参与者将参与环境化学、材料化学或生物化学领域的研究项目。通过项目参与者获得的技术培训将培养责任感，独立性，成熟度和信心，并创造研究人员谁能够寻找出调查的新途径，是称职的沟通者和独立的thinkers.A每周学生/教师小组将举行调查伦理问题是相关的化学研究人员。道德和价值观研究计划将支持道德和价值观课程的开发，使用案例研究来识别和分析道德困境并促进道德行为。

This project, funded by the Chemistry Division, supports Drs. Lowell Kispert, John B. Vincent and other members of the Chemistry Department at the University of Alabama Tuscaloosa in re-establishing a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site in chemistry. For the period 2000-2002 39 undergraduate students will spend ten weeks each conducting projects which are often interdisciplinary in nature under the direct supervision of Chemistry faculty with extensive experience in directing undergraduate research. Participants will be involved in research projects in environmental chemistry, chemistry of materials or biological chemistry. Technical training gained by project participants will foster responsibility, independence, maturity and confidence and create researchers who are able to search out new avenues of investigation, are competent communicators and independent thinkers.A weekly student/faculty panel will be held to investigate ethical issues that are pertinent to researchers in chemistry. The Ethics and Values Studies program will support development of an ethics and values curriculum using case studies to identify and analyze ethical dilemmas and foster ethical behavior.
