Chemistry Research Experiences for Undergraduates at Harvey Mudd College

化学教育计划的这一奖项支持哈维穆德学院（HMC）本科生研究经验（REU）网站的延续。 Shenda Baker是该网站的项目总监。八名HMC教师将担任REU学生导师。八名学生将被支持一个十弱的研究计划。其他学生将得到机构基金和教师研究赠款的支持。哈维·穆德的REU网站专注于招募对化学职业感兴趣的女本科生。提供的研究项目是在分析，生物，无机，有机，物理和理论化学领域。夏季研究活动将补充化学和科学道德职业讲习班，研讨会和工厂参观一个运行的化学设施。 课程评估将包括跟踪学生毕业后的专业，出版物，职业道路和最终获得的学位。一个匿名的计划评估表也将被用来提供反馈的方法，以改善学生的夏季研究经验。该网站还为科学家和非科学家提供广泛的技术交流培训。

This award from the Chemistry Education Program supports the continuation of a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at Harvey Mudd College (HMC). Shenda Baker is the site's Program Director. Eight HMC faculty will serve as REU student mentors. Eight students will be supported for a ten-weak research program. Additional students will be supported by institutional funds and faculty research grants. The REU site at Harvey Mudd focuses on recruiting female undergraduate students interested in careers in chemistry. The research projects offered are in the areas of analytical, biological, inorganic, organic, physical, and theoretical chemistry. Summer research activities will be supplemented with workshops on careers in chemistry and scientific ethics, seminars, and a plant tour to an operating chemical facility. Program assessment will include tracking the students' major upon graduation, publications, career path and eventual degree obtained. An anonymous program evaluation form will also be used to provide feedback on ways to improve the students' summer research experience. This REU site also provides extensive training in technical communication to both scientists and non-scientists.
