REU Site: Undergraduate Training in Materials Characterization

菲斯克大学继续运营本科生研究体验(REU)网站。REU网站自1994年以来一直在运营。拟议中的REU网站的主题是材料表征。学生参与的研究涉及晶体生长、玻璃、非线性光学材料、表面科学和陶瓷。每年在全国范围内招募10名本科生进行为期9周的暑期研究。除了参与个人研究项目外，学生还参加关于当前主要研究主题的研讨会，关于实验错误分析和研究中的伦理的小型课程，并参观附近的研究设施。学生还有机会在专业会议上展示他们的研究成果。

Fisk University continues operation of a Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Site. The REU Site has been in operation since 1994. The theme of the proposed REU Site is Materials Characterization. Students participate in research that involves crystal growth, glasses, nonlinear optical materials, surface science, and ceramics. Ten undergraduate students are recruited nationwide every year for a nine-week summer research experience. In addition to participating in individual research projects, students attend seminars on current major research topics, a mini-course on experimental error analysis and on ethics in research, and visit nearby research facilities. Students also have the opportunity to present the results of their research at a professional conference.
