REU: Research Experience for Undergraduates in Chemistry at the University of Alabama

PI：Kispert 机构：该奖项支持2003-2005年夏天在亚拉巴马大学塔斯卡卢萨分校的本科生研究经验（REU）网站。 洛厄尔湾Kispert是网站总监; John Vincent是联合PI。 12名学生（11名由NSF支持）将与化学系的教师和研究小组在每年夏天进行为期10周的研究。 该网站将鼓励少数民族和残疾学生申请。四名高中教师也将参加研究在这个网站下的程序，研究经验的教师（RET）。所有参与者将在化学系教师的监督下进行研究。他们将选择环境，材料或生物化学的明确的跨学科课程。 将通过每周中午的研讨会和问题讨论会加强在制定这些项目期间获得的培训。 REU学生将在最后一周举办研讨会。 每个人都将提交一份关于他/她的成就的最终报告，并制作一张海报，在区域ACS会议和他们的学校展出。

PI: Kispert Institution: U of Alabama TuscaloosaThe award supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Alabama Tuscaloosa for the summers of 2003-2005. Lowell D. Kispert is the site director; John Vincent is the co-PI. Twelve students (eleven supported by NSF) will carry out research with faculty and research groups in the chemistry department each summer over a ten-week period. The site will encourage applications from minority and handicapped students. Four high school teachers will also participate in research at this site under the program, Research Experience for Teachers (RET). All participants will carry out research under the supervision of faculty in the chemistry department. They will select a well-defined interdisciplinary program in environmental, materials, or biological chemistry. Training acquired during development of these projects will be enhanced by weekly noontime seminars and problem sessions. The REU students will present a seminar in the last week. Each will submit a final report on his/her accomplishments and construct a poster to be displayed at a regional ACS meeting and at their school.
