Green Chemistry on the Palouse: A Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site at the Univerisity of Idaho and Washington State University

机构：University of爱达荷州PI：McHale 在2003-2005年夏天，涉及爱达荷州大学和华盛顿州立大学化学系的本科生研究经验将涉及10名学生（8名NSF支持）。 这个为期10周的计划将强调绿色化学的研究课题，其定义为“减少或消除有害物质的使用和产生的化学产品和工艺的设计”。 珍妮湖麦克海尔（爱达荷州）是网站主任和苏B.克拉克（WSU）是共同PI。 来自这些机构的14名教师可用于监督研究项目，包括危险废物整治，催化，太阳能转换和环保合成等主题。 合作部门将最大限度地利用其现有的研究资源，并促进更多样化的化学研究方法。 学生将从太平洋西北部的地区大学招募，其中包括华盛顿，爱达荷州，蒙大拿州，俄勒冈州，阿拉斯加和怀俄明州。将强调吸引来自代表性不足群体的学生。 关于研究和职业问题的每周研讨会将在学校之间轮流举行。 将前往太平洋西北国家实验室进行实地考察。

Institution: University of Idaho PI: McHale A Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) involving the chemistry departments at the University of Idaho and Washington State University will involve 10 students (8 NSF supported) during the summers of 2003-2005. This 10-week program will emphasize research topics in Green Chemistry which is defined as "design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use and generation of hazardous substances". Jeanne L. McHale (Idaho) is the site director and Sue B.Clark (WSU) is the co-PI. Fourteen faculty from these institutions are available to supervise research projects encompassing subjects such as hazardous waste remediation, catalysis, solar energy conversion, and environmentally friendly synthesis. The collaborating departments will maximize their available resources for research and promote more diverse approaches to chemical research. Students will be recruited from regional colleges in the Pacific Northwest, which includes Washington, Idaho, Montana, Oregon, Alaska, and Wyoming. There will be an emphasis on attracting students from under-represented groups. Weekly seminars on research and career issues will alternate between the schools. A field trip will be taken to the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory.
