REU Site: Research Experiences for Undergraduates in Atomic, Molecular, and Laser Physics

SRI国际的分子物理实验室（MPL）继续为国家科学基金会的本科生研究经验（REU）计划提供网站。 MPL在原子，分子和激光物理学的基础和应用研究方面享有世界声誉。在过去的11年里，106名本科生参加了MPL的REU计划，与博士合作。来自MPL工作人员的导师在这些领域的各种实验和理论研究问题。该计划招募高素质的本科生;帮助他们确定学生，导师和研究项目的最佳匹配;并努力提供有益的夏季研究经验。MPL的工作人员为每个学生提供正式和非正式的机会来进行令人兴奋的研究，讨论他们的工作，展示项目成果，并探索科学职业的可能性。我们希望这个REU计划继续产生学生/导师共同撰写的演讲和出版物，本科生谁有博士的工作更好的感觉。一个研究所的科学家，以及我们的研究人员，都被年轻科学家的活力和新视角所鼓舞。

The Molecular Physics Laboratory (MPL) of SRI International continues to host a site for the National Science Foundation's Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Program. The MPL has a worldwide reputation for its fundamental and applied research in atomic, molecular, and laser physics. During the past 11 years, 106 undergraduate students have participated in MPL's REU program, collaborating with Ph.D. mentors from the MPL staff on a wide variety of experimental and theoretical research problems in these areas. The program recruits highly qualified undergraduate students; helps them identify the best match of student, mentor, and research project; and strives to provide a rewarding summer research experience. MPL staff provide each student with both formal and informal opportunities to perform exciting research, discuss their work, present project results, and explore career possibilities in science. We expect this REU program to continue to produce student/mentor co-authored presentations and publications, undergraduate students who have a better sense of the work of Ph.D. scientists at a research institute, and our research staff renewed by the energy and fresh perspective of young scientists.
