REU Site: Louisiana State University; Synchrotron-Radiation-Based Research for Advanced Undergraduate Science and Engineering Students

路易斯安那州立大学(LSU)在其同步辐射实验室高级微结构和器件中心(CAMD)为本科生研究经验(REU)网站提供支持。每年在全国范围内招收10名学生进行为期10周的暑期研究，招生重点是来自路易斯安那州和周边各州的学生。目标是来自多个学科的本科生，包括物理、计算机、生物科学和工程。学生参与三个主要类别的各种研究项目：基础科学和应用科学研究(材料的X射线光谱分析)和微制造(X射线光刻)。路易斯安那州立大学的项目为非路易斯安那州立大学的本科生提供了在现代化的大型设施中参与研究的独特机会。它还提供了在其他学院和大学加强基于同步加速器的本科生研究的机会，让学生所在机构的教职员工通过“家庭导师”计划参与进来。

Louisiana State University (LSU) supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site at its synchrotron radiation laboratory, the Center for Advanced Microstructures and Devices (CAMD). Ten students are recruited nationwide every year for a ten-week summer research experience, with a recruitment focus on students from the state of Louisiana and from surrounding states. Undergraduates from many disciplines, including physical, computer and biological sciences and engineering are targeted. Students participate in a variety of research projects within three major categories: basic and applied science research (x-ray spectroscopy of materials) and microfabrication (x-ray lithography).The program at LSU provides non-LSU undergraduates a unique opportunity to participate in research in a modern, large facility. It also provides the opportunity for enhancing synchrotron-based undergraduate research at other colleges and universities by involving faculty from the students' home institution through a 'Home Mentor' program.
