University of Nevada, Chemistry REU Program

这项由化学部颁发的奖项支持内华达大学雷诺分校2006-2008年夏季的本科生研究体验(REU)网站。该节目的导演是肖恩·凯西，由《少年派》的联合主演布莱恩·弗罗斯特协助。这项计划特别强调来自没有研究生学位的小型四年制学院的参与者。该项目的一个主要目标是教育那些在其他方面几乎没有接触到研究生学位项目的学生，让他们了解攻读化学高级学位的兴奋和优势。每年夏天，主要从西部地区挑选的8名学生将加入内华达大学的学生，在11个研究小组之一进行为期10周的研究体验，研究小组涵盖无机化学、有机化学、物理化学和理论化学。暑期项目将以本科生研究研讨会结束，研讨会将包括四年制院校的地区教师的口头报告和REU参与者的海报会议。

This award by the Chemistry Division supports a Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) site at the University of Nevada-Reno for the summers of 2006-2008. The program director is Sean Casey who is assisted by co-PI Brian Frost. This program places special emphasis on participants from small four-year colleges having no graduate degree program. A primary goal of the program is to educate students who otherwise have little to no exposure to graduate degree programs about the excitement and advantages of pursuing an advanced degree in chemistry. Each summer, eight students selected primarily from the Western region will join students from the University of Nevada for a ten-week research experience in one of 11 available research groups spanning the areas of inorganic, organic, physical, and theoretical chemistry. The summer programs will be capped-off by an Undergraduate Research Symposium which will include oral presentations from regional faculty at four-year institutions and a poster session by the REU participants.
