REU Site in Microengineered Materials

新墨西哥州的大学继续为本科生（REU）网站的研究经验的操作。该网站每年支持12名本科生进行为期10周的夏季研究体验。这是一个跨学科的研究计划，招收学生在他们的大二和大三主修化学工程，材料科学，化学和陶瓷。该计划汇集了来自不同科学背景的教师沿着从桑迪亚和洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室的工作人员科学家。重点是对工业应用有潜在影响的基础研究。研究项目分为三个信任领域：微系统和纳米生物界面，纳米结构材料和通过自组装合成工程材料。学生还参加伦理研讨会，并在桑迪亚和洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室和当地产业的实地考察。REU网站由国防部与NSF REU计划合作支持。

The University of New Mexico continues operation of a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) Site. The Site supports twelve undergraduates every year for a 10-week summer research experience. This is an interdisciplinary research program that recruits students in their sophomore and junior years majoring in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Chemistry and Ceramics. The program brings together faculty from diverse scientific backgrounds along with staff scientists from Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories. The emphasis is on fundamental research that has potential impact on industrial applications. Research projects are grouped into three trust areas: Microsystems and Nano-Bio Interfaces, Nanostructured Materials, and Synthesis of Engineered Materials Via Self Assembly. Students also participate in ethics seminars, and in field trips to Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories and to local industries.The REU Site is supported by the Department of Defense in partnership with the NSF REU program.
